Objectives Understand how to use the Java Foundation Classes (JFC) to create graphical user interfaces. Lab Assignment This lab assignment will ask you to write a program using the Java Foundation Classes. Exercise 1 Create a New Project named BMICalculator Create a GUI application where the user enters a height in feet and inches and a weight (three inputs) into text fields. The application should have a button that displays the user’s BMI when clicked. To calculate a person’s BMI, the formula is: BMI = (Weight in Pounds / (Height in inches x Height in inches ) ) x 703 Note: Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. According to the NIH, the categories for BMI are: Underweight = <18.5 Normal weight = 18.5–24.9 Overweight = 25–29.9 Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater Submit a document with the source code and sample output in Blackboard.
