The following problem shows up in a number of Java texts, including Savitch's textbook:
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 calories needed for a woman to maintain her weight is:
WBMR = 655 + (4.3 × weight in pounds) + (4.7 × height in inches) − (4.7× age in years)
The calories needed for a man to maintain his weight is:
MBMR = 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, and age in years. The program should then output the number of chocolate bars that should be consumed to maintain one’s weight for both a woman and a man of the input weight, height, and age.
NOTE: This is an application of a selection statement!

Ron has a very good knowledge of graphs and relationships. So he is given a question to solve it using a
programming language. The coordinates of centres of these squares are (x1, a/2), (x2, a/2) and (x3, a/2)
respectively. All of them are placed with one of their sides resting on the x-axis. You are allowed to move
the centres of each of these squares along the x-axis (either to the left or to the right) by a distance of at
most K. Find the maximum possible area of intersections of all these three squares that you can achieve.
That is, the maximum area of the region which is part of all the three squares in the final configuration.
Input

(Sales Commission Calculator) A large company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople receive $200 per week plus 9% of their gross sales for that week. For example, a salesperson who sells $5,000 worth of merchandise in a week receives $200 plus 9% of $5,000, or a total of $650. You’ve been supplied with a list of the items sold by each salesperson. The values of these items are shown below. Develop a Java application that inputs one salesperson’s items sold for last week and calculates and displays that salesperson’s earnings. There’s no limit to the number of items that can be sold.
Item Value
1 239.99
2 129.75
3 99.95
4 350.89
Example Output:
Enter number sold of product #1: 10Enter number sold of product #2: 20Enter number sold of product #3: 30Enter number sold of product #4: 40Earnings this week: $2182.61

- Let's begin with a lesson in roulette. Roulette is a casino game that involves spinning a ball on a wheel that is marked with numbered squares that are red, black, or green. Half of the numbers 1–36 are colored red and half are black and the numbers 0 and 00 are green. Each number occurs only once on the wheel. We can make many different types of bets, but two of the most common are to bet on a single number (1–36) or to bet on a color (either red or black). These will be the two bets we will consider in this project. After all players place their bets on the table, the wheel is spun and the ball tossed onto the wheel. The pocket in which the ball lands on the wheel determines the winning number and color. The ball can land on only one color and number at a time. We begin by placing a bet on a number between 1 and 36. This bet pays 36 to 1 in most casinos, which means we will be paid $36 for each $1 we bet on the winning number. If we lose, we simply lose whatever amount of money we…arrow_forwardLet's begin with a lesson in roulette.

You can use Random.randint() only. 3. Suppose you have been hired to develop a musical chair game. In this game there will be 7 participants and all of them will be moving clockwise around a set of 7 chairs organized in a circular manner while music will be played in the background. You will control the music using random numbers between 0-3.lf the generated random number is 1, you will stop the music and if the number of participants who are still in the game is n, the participants at position (n/2) will be eliminated. Each time a participant is eliminated, a chair will be removed and you have to print the player names who are still in the game. The game will end when there will be only one participant left. At the end of the game, display the name of the winner. [Hint: You will need to invoke a built-in method to generate a random number between 0 (inclusive) to 3 (inclusive)]arrow_forward
- MBG students want to change the genetics of plants in AGU. The new plant has a different growing sequence. It grows t cm each day, but every night it loses its height by k cm. While they were discussing that new interesting model, they wanted to formalize the growing algorithm. You should help the student calculate how many days are needed for the plant to grow m cm. Your program on java will take 3 integer values, t, k, and m, respectively. One line output will be showing the number of days.

- Hi, how do we go about solving this problem in Java programming language? Input The input begins with an integer 1 ≤ ? ≤ 10000, the number of frosh. For each frosh, a line follows containing the course numbers of five distinct courses selected by the frosh. Each course number is an integer between 100 and 499. Output The popularity of a combination is the number of frosh selecting exactly the same combination of courses. A combination of courses is considered most popular if no other combination has higher popularity. Output a single line giving the total number of students taking some combination of courses that is most popular.arrow_forwardA boatman, a wolf, a sheep, and a cabbage are on the bank of a river. They have a small boat that is capable of carrying the boatman and at most one other animal/item with him. However, if left alone by the boatman, the wolf can eat the sheep, and the sheep can eat the cabbage. How can all four be moved safely to the opposite bank of the river? Here is a nice visualization of the whole process in the original game. Disclaimer: writers, testers and CodeChef are not related to this link. This leads to a more general problem. If there are other groups of animals/items with the boatman, is it possible to move them all to the opposite bank of the river in such a way that nobody/nothing gets eaten? We will give you the number of animals/items (not including the boatman). Moreover, we will give you all a list of pairs of the form "X Y" where the X-th animalitem will be eaten by the Y-th one if they are both on the opposite bank to the boatman.
