Java program to Design a class that can be used by a health care professional to keep track of a patient’s vital statistics.

Design a class that can be used by a health care professional to keep track of a patient’s vital statistics. The following are the details.

Name of the class - Patient

Member Variables - patientName(String),height(double),width(double)

Member Function - double computeBMI()

The above method should compute the BMI and return the result. The formula for the computation of BMI  is weight (in kg) ÷ height*height(in metres).

Create an object of the Patient class and check the results. 

Source code:

1:  public class Patient {  
2:       String patientName;  
3:       double height, weight;  
4:       Patient(String name, double height, double weight){  
5:            this.patientName = name;  
6:            this.height = height;  
7:            this.weight = weight;  
8:       }  
9:       double computeBMI() {  
10:            // BMI = ( Weight in Pounds / ( Height in inches x Height in inches ) ) x 703  
11:            return ( weight / ( height * height ) ) * 703;  
12:       }  
13:       public static void main(String[] args) {  
14:            // TODO Auto-generated method stub  
15:            Patient patient = new Patient("XYZ", 177/2.54, 59*2.2);  
16:            System.out.println("Name: " + patient.patientName + "\nBMI: " + patient.computeBMI());  
17:       }  
18:  }
