Project B: Patient Class

Write a definition of a class that has the following properties.

a. The name of the class is Patient. b. The class Patient has the following member variables:

name (string), height (double), age and weight (int). c. The class Patient has the following member functions:

setName setAge setWeight setHeight getName getAge getWeight getHeight display weightStatus

sets the name sets the age sets the weight sets the height returns the name returns the age

returns the weight returns the height outputs the data in the member variables in a nice format returns a string according to the following chart (taken from: http://www.whathealth.com/bmi/formula.html )

BMI	Weight Status
Below 18.5	Underweight
18.5 -24.9	Normal
25 - 29.9	Overweight
30 & Above	Obese

The formula for BMI (body mass index) is given below: BMI = (weight in pounds * 703) / (height in inches)2

d. Write definitions of all the member functions of class Patient. Once you have written the class, write a separate program that creates three Patient

objects named patJane, patTim, and patLinda, to hold the following data:

The program should store data in these objects (call the setter functions to assign these values: do not prompt the user to enter anything) and then display the data for each patient to the screen (name, age, height, weight, and weight status) in label format as shown below:

Name: Jane North Age: 25 Height: 66 inches Weight: 120 pounds Weight Status: Normal

Name	Age	Height	Weight
Jane North	25	66	120
Tim South	64	72	251
Linda East	52	69	175

Note: For one of the objects use the getter functions. For the other two objects call the display() member function. Do not use an array of objects (you will use one in 5C).
