The program will ask the user to enter weight in pounds and height in inches and displays the Body Mass Index (BMI) status. The status for the BMI is shows in the table below. It then will display the weight in kg, height in meter, the BMI and the status of the BMI. Use manipulator to output the result into 11 decimal place.
Control structures
Control structures are block of statements that analyze the value of variables and determine the flow of execution based on those values. When a program is running, the CPU executes the code line by line. After sometime, the program reaches the point where it has to make a decision on whether it has to go to another part of the code or repeat execution of certain part of the code. These results affect the flow of the program's code and these are called control structures.
Switch Statement
The switch statement is a key feature that is used by the programmers a lot in the world of programming and coding, as well as in information technology in general. The switch statement is a selection control mechanism that allows the variable value to change the order of the individual statements in the software execution via search.
QUESTION 2
The program will ask the user to enter weight in pounds and height in inches and displays the Body Mass Index (BMI) status. The status for the BMI is shows in the table below. It then will display the weight in kg, height in meter, the BMI and the status of the BMI. Use manipulator to output the result into 11 decimal place.
[Hint: 1 pound = 0.45359237 kilograms. 1 inch = 0.0254 meters]
BMI = weight in kilogram / (height in meter2)
