Question

Body Mass Index (BMI) is measure of weight that takes height into account. Generally, a BMI above 25 is considered high, that is, likely to indicate that an individual is overweight. BMI is calculated as follows for both men and women: 703 * weight in pounds / (height in inches)^2

Files BMI.java and BMIPanel.java contain skeletons for a program that uses a GUI to let the user compute their BMI. This is similar to the Fahrenheit program in listings 6.5 and 6.6 of the text.

Fill in the code as indicated by the comments and compile and run this program; you should see the BMI calculator displayed.

Explanation / Answer

Try the below code, I think it may help you to an extent.
Please check your requirements after copying the below code, becoz its only the skeleton code.

PLEASE DO RATE if the below code helps to your requirement....
