Hello everyone! I hope someone can help me. I'm not very good with programming, so please bear with me, because I'm sure this is very simple for better programmers. But I digress. I am trying to write a C++ program to calculate your "ideal body weight".
Here is the question/story:
A simple rule to estimate your ideal body weight is to allow 110 pounds for the first 5 feet of height and 5 pounds for each additional inch. Write a program with a variable for the height of a person in feet and another variable for the additional inches and input values for these variables from the keyboard. Assume the person is at least 5 feet tall. For example, a person that is 6 feet and 3 inches tall would be represented with a variable that stores the number 6 and another variable that stores the number 3. Based on these values calculate and output the ideal body weight.
And here is the code I have so far!
I'm not very good with math, so that is where I am having the most trouble!Code:#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main( )
{
int feet;
int inches;
int ideal;
cout << "Please enter how many feet tall you are: ";
cin >> feet;
cout << "Please enter the additional inches of your height: ";
cin >> inches;
//math equation
cout << "Your ideal body weight is"
return 0;
}
Thank you, for any help/feedback!
