Question

I need help to write a program in Java.

If a moderately active person cuts their calorie intake by 500 calories a day, they can typically lose about 4 pounds a month. Write a program that lets the user enter their starting weight, then creates and displays a table showing what their expected weight will be at the end of each month for the next 6 months if they stay on this diet.

Answer 1

import java.util.*;

class Dieting
{
   public static void main (String[] args)
   {
   Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
  
   System.out.println("Enter the starting weight of the person in pounds : ");
   double weight = input.nextDouble();
  
   for(int i=1;i<=6;i++)
   {
       weight = weight -4;
       System.out.println("Weight of person after "+i+" month : "+weight+" pounds");
   }
  
   }
}

Output:

• Enter the starting weight of the person in pounds : 235
  Weight of person after 1 month : 231.0 pounds
  Weight of person after 2 month : 227.0 pounds
  Weight of person after 3 month : 223.0 pounds
  Weight of person after 4 month : 219.0 pounds
  Weight of person after 5 month : 215.0 pounds
  Weight of person after 6 month : 211.0 pounds
