Remarks:

> - Entity line range: Entity scores are computed by querying entity lines(BeginLine, EndLine) and running cloc on a temporary file containing only that line range.

> - External dependency: Requires `cloc` to be available in `PATH`.

> - Entity score: Represented as the compound term `lines(Code, Comments, Blanks)`.
