Getter Methods

DEVELOP THE FOLLOWING CLASS AND AN APPROPRIATE TEST DRIVER.

Develop an immutable Person class that contains the following values:

• name
• age
• height_weight

Include in the class:

• appropriate constructor
• getter methods
• toString method
• BMI method
• isOverweight method (returns Boolean value)

HeightAndWeight class very similar to the XYCoord class from the lecture slides. The class was to have an appropriate constructor, setters and getters, and a print method that would print “5 ft 7 ins. 140 lbs.”.

The other part of the lab is to write a test driver for it, i.e., a separate main program that creates an object of type HeightAndWeight and shows that all of the methods work.

Calculation of Body-Mass Index (BMI)

Body Mass Index is a simple calculation using a person’s height and weight. The formula is

BMI = kg/m²

where kg is a person’s weight in kilograms and m² is their height in metres squared. A BMI of 25.0 or more is overweight, while the healthy range is 18.5 to 24.9. BMI applies to most adults 18-65 years.
