摘要:Code cloning hasalwaysbeen an area of research for quite a time now. The copying of the code and pasting it over a set of code-with or without the modification is known as code cloning. Code detection technique are different for different type of code clones in order to find acode fragment. In many large-scale software industries; the developers are mostly perturbed by the code duplication in their source code.Such that, the clone duplication or clone detection technique reassured the identification of the code fragments in the source code. The prime concern of the code detection is to identify the clone and replace it with a single function or with some code fragments that will eventually result in the same working behavior of the removed code clone. As a result of that, in the last decade, the topic of detecting code duplication led to various tools that ease the work to detect the duplicated blocks of code.In brief,the text based technique can detect onlytheType 1 clone. The Token based technique detectsboth the Type1 andType II clone. In this paper, thedifferent methods for code clone detection, different tools and technique are covered andfurther,the analysis of code cloning is also discussed
