Question

to write a program that calculates the number of calories you burn while exercising. The program requires users to enter their weight, the distance travelled, and the elapsed time in minutes from the beginning of the exercise to the end. Users should be able to select from the following types of exercises: jogging, walking, swimming, and bicycling. After these values are entered, users should click a calculate button to display the results of the calorie calculation. A clear button should allow the users to enter a new set of values.

Explanation / Answer

Here is the Pseudo part (I.E., The Hard part)... You just need to draw up the flow chart now using the pseudo code... Should take less than 5 minutes.

WRITE "Distance traveled: "
READ distTraveled

WRITE "Duration of exercise, In minutes: "
READ time

WRITE "Workout type: "
WRITE "    [0] Jogging"
WRITE "    [1] Walking"
WRITE "    [2] Swimming"
WRITE "    [3] Bicycling"
READ workout

caloriesBurned = 0

IF (workout == 0) THEN
   use the REAL formula for calories burned here:
   weight/(disTraveled*time*4)
ENDIF

IF (workout == 1) THEN
   use the REAL formula for calories burned here:
   weight/(disTraveled*time*54)
ENDIF

IF (workout == 2) THEN
   use the REAL formula for calories burned here:
   weight/(disTraveled*time*77)
ENDIF

IF (workout == 3) THEN
   use the REAL formula for calories burned here:
   weight/(disTraveled*time*123)
ENDIF

IF (workout > 3 THEN
   WRITE "Error: Invalid Selection."
ENDIF
STOP
