Textbook Question

Chapter 2, Problem 13PP

The Harris–Benedict equation estimates the number of calories your body needs to maintain your weight if you do no exercise. This is called your basal metabolic rate, or BMR.

The formula for the calories needed for a woman to maintain her weight is BMR=655+(4.3×weight in pounds)+(4.7×height in inches)–(4.7×age in years)

The formula for the calories needed for a man to maintain his weight is BMR=66+(6.3×weight in pounds)+(12.9×height in inches)–(6.8×age in years)

A typical chocolate bar will contain around 230 calories. Write a program that allows the user to input his or her weight in pounds, height in inches, age in years, and the character M for male and F for female. The program should then output the number of chocolate bars that should be consumed to maintain one’s weight for the appropriate sex of the specified weight, height, and age.
