(Body Mass Index Calculator) We introduced the body mass index (BMI) calculator in Exercise 1.9. The formulas for calculating BMI are
Or
Create a BMI calculator application that reads the user’s weight in pounds and height in inches (or, if you prefer, the user’s weight in kilograms and height in meters), then calculates and displays the user’s body mass index. Also, the application should display the following information from the Department of Health and Human Services/National Institutes of Health so the user can evaluate his/her BMI:
BMI VALUES Underweight: less than 18.5 Normal:between 18.5 and 24.9 Overweight: between 25 and 29.9 Obese: 30 or greater |
[Note: In this chapter, you learned to use the int type to represent whole numbers. The BMIcalculations when done with int values will both produce whole-number results. In Chapter 4 you’ll learn to use the double type to represent numbers with decimal points. When the BMI calculations are performed with doubles, they’ll each produce numbers with decimal points these are called “floating-point” numbers.]

- (Random Walk Robot) A robot is initially located at position (0, 0) in a grid [−5, 5] × [−5, 5]. The robot can move randomly in any of the directions: up, down, left, right. The robot can only move one step at a time. For each move, print the direction of the move in and the current position of the robot. Use formatted output to print the direction (Down, Up, Left or Right) in the left. The direction takes 10 characters in total and fill in the field with empty spaces. The statement to print results in such format is given below: cout << setw(10) << left << ‘Down’ << ... ; cout << setw(10) << left << ‘Up’ << ...; If the robot moves back to the original place (0,0), print “Back to the origin!” to the console and stop the program. If it reaches the boundary of the grid, print “Hit the boundary!” to the console and stop the program. A successful run of your code may look like: Due to randomness, your results may have a different…arrow_forward(Demonstrate cancellation errors) A cancellation error occurs when you are manipulating a very large number with a very small number. The large number may cancel out the smaller number. For example, the result of 100000000.0 + 0.000000001 is equal to 100000000.0. To avoid cancellation errors and obtain more accurate results, carefully select the order of computation. For example, in computing the following series, you will obtain more accurate results by comput- ing from right to left rather than from left to right: 1 1 1 1+ + 3 + ... 2 п Write a program that compares the results of the summation of the preceding series, computing from left to right and from right to left with n = 50000.arrow_forward(Emirp) An emirp (prime spelled backward) is a nonpalindromic prime number whose reversal is also a prime. For example, 17 is a prime and 71 is a prime, so 17 and 71 are both emirps. Write a Java program that displays the first 100 emirps. Display 10 numbers per line with a spacing of 5; all numbers should be left-aligned.arrow_forward
- *Please help in javascript* Summary: Given integer values for red, green, and blue, subtract the gray from each value. Computers represent color by combining the sub-colors red, green, and blue (rgb). Each sub-color's value can range from 0 to 255. Thus (255, 0, 0) is bright red, (130, 0, 130) is a medium purple, (0, 0, 0) is black, (255, 255, 255) is white, and (40, 40, 40) is a dark gray. (130, 50, 130) is a faded purple, due to the (50, 50, 50) gray part. (In other words, equal amounts of red, green, blue yield gray). Given values for red, green, and blue, remove the gray part. Ex: If the input is: 130 50 130 the output is: 80 0 80 import java.util.Scanner; public class LabProgram {public static void main(String[] args) {/* Type your code here. */}}arrow_forwardDO NOT USE EXISTING ANSWERS ON CHEGG OR COURSE HERO OR ANY OTHER SERVICES PLEASE! Thanks :) CODE IN PYTHON AND SHOW COMMENTS TO EXPLAIN CODE A confused Dutchman trying to speak English could say “I am in the war”, even though there is no hostile activity going on. The confusion1 here is that the English sentence “I am confused” is translated in Dutch as “Ik ben in de war”, which is phonetically (“sounding”) quite close to the first sentence. Such confusion leads to much enjoyment, but can complicate matters a bit. Given a sentence in Dutch and a dictionary containing both correct translations as well as phonetic (incorrect) translations of individual words, find the translation of the sentence and indicate whether it is correct, or in case there is more than one find the total number of correct and incorrect translations. A sentence is correctly translated when each word of the sentence is correctly translated.

Write a function: • dicesim(D1,D2,trials) that takes as input the number of sides on die 1 (D1) and die2 (D2) and the number of trials. Your function should repeatedly sum pairs of random numbers between 1 and D1 and 1 and D2 and keep track of how many times each sum occurs. The function returns a numpy array with the fraction each sum of rolls occured. Since the numbers are chosen at random, the fractions will differ some from run to run. One run of the function print(p22.dicesim(6,6,10000)) resulted in: [0. 0. 0.0259 0.0615 0.0791 0.1086 0.139 0.1633 0.1385 0.114 0.0833 0.0587 0.0281] or displayed using the code from Section 16.1.1.: PMF of X Note: you should submit a file with only the standard comments at the top and the function.

- (Mechanics) The deflection at any point along the centerline of a cantilevered beam, such as the one used for a balcony (see Figure 5.15), when a load is distributed evenly along the beam is given by this formula: d=wx224EI(x2+6l24lx) d is the deflection at location x (ft). xisthedistancefromthesecuredend( ft).wistheweightplacedattheendofthebeam( lbs/ft).listhebeamlength( ft). Eisthemodulesofelasticity( lbs/f t 2 ).Iisthesecondmomentofinertia( f t 4 ). For the beam shown in Figure 5.15, the second moment of inertia is determined as follows: l=bh312 b is the beam’s base. h is the beam’s height. Using these formulas, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines and displays a table of the deflection for a cantilevered pine beam at half-foot increments along its length, using the following data: w=200lbs/ftl=3ftE=187.2106lb/ft2b=.2fth=.3ftarrow_forward(Geometry: area of a regular polygon) A regular polygon is an n-sided polygon in which all sides are of the same length and all angles have the same degree (i.e., the polygon is both equilateral and equiangular).
