Zyt your inputs are reversed. Take weight first, then height.

Zyt The original problem description tells you the order that they will supply the inputs. The program cannot pass the tests if it does not take input correctly.

1) there is no need for the while loop 2) it works regardless of the while loop As long as you you input metric values So enter your height in terms of meters And weight in terms of kg

It's actually for the projects that this app gives us to answer, on control flow, and I'm not the one who is testing it so I don't know what it's putting in.

They might be using imperial system ( lb, inches ) So try this BMI = 703 * weight / height **2

Thanks! But how did that affect the whole code tho? I don't understand? is it because the BMI formula is weight/ height^2?
