Test II: Problem Solving and Programming (@ Comlab 50 points)

Consider the average calculation of your first grading period. As if you do have 8 subjects such as Math,
Science, English, Filipino, Araling Panlipunan, Physical Education, TVE, and Values Education. Assuming that
you have grades already for each subject. Now, develop a C++ program that will accept grades input per
subject, compute and display the average.

1. Make an Algorithm and Pseudo-code (10 pts)

2. Illustrate in a form of Flow Chart (10 pts)
3. Create Program Code (25 pts)
4. Test/Evaluate the Program Code ( 5 pts)
Problem 1:
(EXPECTED OUTPUT)

Test your application by following the instructions below.

1. Your program will display this output:

WELCOME TO AVERAGE CALCULATOR PROGRAM

Enter your name: JUAN DELA CRUZ

Enter your section: RAMBUTAN

2. Once you have entered the input above, then press ENTER KEY, it will generate the following:

*******************************************
Hi! JUAN DELA CRUZ OF RAMBUTAN
NOW PLEASE ENTER YOUR GRADES EACH SUBJECT

Enter your grades in Math: 90

Enter your grades in Science: 90
Enter your grades in English: 90
Enter your grades in Filipino: 90
Enter your grades in Araling Panlipunan: 90
Enter your grades in Physical Education: 90
Enter your grades in TVE: 90
Enter your grades in Values Education: 90
********************************************
3. After entering the grades value, then press ENTER KEY, it will generate the following:

HELLO! JUAN DELA CRUZ OF RAMBUTAN

YOUR AVERAGE IS : 90

THANK YOU FOR USING THE PROGRAM

*********************************************
Press any key to continue

Problem II: Computing Body Mass Index

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your
weight in kilograms and dividing by the square of your height in meters. The interpretation of
BMI for people 16 years or older is as follows:
BMI Interpretation
below 16 seriously underweight
16–18 underweight
18–24 normal weight
24–29 overweight
29–35 seriously overweight
above 35 gravely overweight

Write a program that prompts the user to enter a weight in pounds and height in inches and
display the BMI. Note that one pound is 0.45359237 kilograms and one inch is 0.0254
meters.

Note: your program must accept input from the user such as name, section, and grades of every subject.
