All right.

1
00:00.630 --> 00:06.300
So in the next lesson you're going to tackle the interactive challenge where you have to write the code

2
00:06.600 --> 00:08.270
and I will check your solutions

3
00:08.280 --> 00:09.720
behind the scenes.

4
00:09.720 --> 00:11.630
So this is what you should see.

5
00:11.700 --> 00:17.310
This is the BMI calculator challenge, and there's a little bit of description about what BMIs are and

6
00:17.310 --> 00:18.760
what they’re used for.

7
00:18.780 --> 00:24.810
Now the most important thing is that I've included the formula to calculate the BMI which is the weight

8
00:24.810 --> 00:27.120
divided by the height squared.

9
00:27.210 --> 00:30.670
And this is weight in kilograms and height in meters.

10
00:30.690 --> 00:37.680
So your challenge is to create a function that takes the weight and the height as inputs, like so,

11
00:37.860 --> 00:44.640
and to be able to give the output, which is going to be equal to the BMI, so that if I run this line

12
00:44.640 --> 00:50.850
of code using the function that you create, which is going to be called bmiCalculator, I should be able

13
00:50.850 --> 00:55.300
to get the BMI inside this variable called bmi.

14
00:55.470 --> 01:00.810
Now, the order of your inputs matter in this case. You’re going to have to put the weight as an input

15
01:00.810 --> 01:05.810
first and then the height as an input in order to satisfy this line of code.

16
01:05.880 --> 01:12.270
So you can copy what's inside the index.js file in here, and you can paste it into the Snippets

17
01:12.270 --> 01:20.700
tool here to write your code and to test your code inside the Chrome Developer Tools and use the console.

18
01:20.730 --> 01:27.210
So, if you’re here, you can activate this line of code, and try to write your function here, so that when

19
01:27.210 --> 01:34.820
you console.log your BMI variable, you should be getting the same value back as any BMI calculator online.

20
01:34.830 --> 01:40.800
Now once you're happy with your function then you can go ahead and click Check solution in order to

21
01:40.800 --> 01:42.660
check to see if you got it right.

22
01:42.900 --> 01:47.730
And once you're done then you can go ahead and continue on to the next lesson, where I’ll go through the solution

23
01:47.730 --> 01:48.780
with you step by step.
