What is wrong with my code?

Question

height =float(input())
weight =input()
x =weight/(height**2)
if x<18.5:
print("Underweight")
elif 18.5<=x<25:
print("Normal")
elif 25<=x<30:
print("Overweight")
elif x>=30:
print("Obesity")

Answer 1

Read the task description again:
1. input is weight
2. input is height
Both weight and height need to be converted to a numeric data type

Answer 2

Pls add task description also..
I think, first input is weight and 2nd input is height.
And as already mentioned both are should be converted to numbers..

Answer 4

Please try what we have suggested to you.

If you still encounter problems then, link your updated code.

Answer 5

elif x>=30: can be replaced by else statement
it equals because it's the last test

Sample input
85
1.9
I think 85 is weight and not height

Order matters if it is a sololearn task so the code can pass the test cases. The formula will give the wrong metric if you swap inputs

Answer 8

Yeah your right if we write foat, its more accurate. I write int and it came right.

Answer 9

Tracking your BMI is a useful way of checking if you’re maintaining a healthy weight. It’s calculated using a person's weight and height, using this formula: weight / height²

The resulting number indicates one of the following categories:
Underweight = less than 18.5
Normal = more or equal to 18.5 and less than 25
Overweight = more or equal to 25 and less than 30
Obesity = 30 or more

Let’s make finding out your BMI quicker and easier, by creating a program that takes a person's weight and height as input and outputs the corresponding BMI category.

Sample Input
85
1.9

Sample Output
Normal

Problem

Answer 11

Hi,
Weight before height
And cast to int weight

weight =int(input())
height =float(input())

Answer 12

MBZH31 What does it matter if she prompts for height input first?
The formula using both variables is underneath them? It's not like the variables are used before assignment? (unless you meant something else, that she divided height by weight squared, before editing it, perhaps? )

Answer 13

Lisa 😳 I think I survived SL thus far without knowing that, and it might have dearly taken away some time from me, and I now understand the cause of my perplexion with some of the failures then. Thank you :), it's gonna help with the other languages I'll move onto on SL

Answer 14

MBZH31 I specifically asked about the order not type conversion because it would have worked with both order of assignments on a Python editor.

I just wasn't aware SL needed to have this order to be able to do test runs. Thank you, though

Answer 15

Korkunç the Terrible Frusciante That's why I admit I misinterpreted. I'm sorry about that. I'm also going to delete my initial response cause I'm just spouting nonsense now LOL

Answer 16

Justice You're actually saying that to a fulltime nonsense spouter. It's just a misunderstanding and your code is educational, do not delete that please :-)

Answer 17

1. Add weight as an int or float type…
2. You need an else statement at the end with empty print()

Answer 18

Raunak Pandey (2) No she doesn't. I mean ifs don't need elses to get executed, but when used as ternary operators, they do, AFAIK

Answer 19

You sould write:
height = float(inpute())
weight = int(input())
If you do not write "int", it will be a string.

Answer 20

Weight should also be turned into a float
