Body mass index calculation on Scratch Program

 We will make an example of the Body Mass Index Calculator program together with the scratch program. The Body Mass Index Calculation formula that we will do with the Scratch program:

Bmi = Weight (kg) / Height (meter) * Height (meter)


The codes are as follows;

Body mass index calculation on Scratch Program

First of all, we add someone as a sprite and the text that writes the body mass index calculation. Codes inside the sprite that writes body mass index calculation:


Body mass index calculation on Scratch Program

To make the text larger and smaller (Zoom effect), we enlarge the text by 10 size, wait for 1 second, and enlarge it by -10 size (ie reduction operation). You can enlarge or reduce the text as much as you want. Up to you. After hiding the text with the hide command, we release a message for our other sprite to appear on the screen.


Game Making with Scratch

When Start Programme command comes, our other sprite comes into play and appears. After it appears, the User is prompted to enter his height in centimeters. We do this with the ask and wait command from the sensing menu. The value entered by the user is kept in the response command in the sensing menu. We transfer this value to the height variable that we created from the variable menu before. Since height is in meters and its square will be taken from the calculation formula, we divide the entered centimeter value, that is, the value kept in the response command, by 100 and transfer the obtained value into the variable with height meters. After doing the height work, it was time for the user to take his weight. Again, we use the ask and wait command in the detection menu. Here, we assign the value kept in the response command to the Weight(kg) variable. BMI=weight/height meters*height meters To apply this formula, we get the division command in the operators menu. We place the weight variable in the left part. In the right part, we add the multiplication command. We assign the height meter variable to the right and left parts. Thus, the value obtained as a result of the process is assigned to the value in the body mass index variable. Now it's time to tell whether the person is underweight, overweight or obese according to the BMI value we have. For this, we use the if command in the Control menu. If the person's BMI value is less than the standard value or is in that range, we write the BMI that falls within that range.

How to Make Countdown a Maze Game on Scratch

  We will make a countdown maze game example with Scratch. For the countdown maze game example we will make with Scratch, we upload the maze picture we downloaded to our computer from the scene section to the scratch program. Then we select the object that we will move in the maze section from the choose a sprite section and add it to our scene. We bring the object to be moved to the red point, which is the starting point. First of all, we create a variable named Duration to calculate the elapsed time in the maze from the "Variables" menu When you click the green flag, set the duration variable to 40. Our goal is to get the ball to the finish line in 40 seconds. If our ball object to move, we give the x and y coordinates to go to the red starting point. Our object will not move only once. First of all, we add the "Forever" code from the "Control" menu so that it moves every time we press the arrow key. Now it's time to check which direction key is pres...

Blinking LED with Mblock and Arduino

  We will blink the led with the mblock program. The list of materials that will be used in our led circuit before moving on to the codes of the application we will make with the Mblock program: 1-Arduino Uno 2-BreadBoard 3-LED 4-220Ω Resistor 5-Jumper Cables We need supplies. We add a 220 ohm resistor to the long leg of the Led that we added to our breadboard. We connect one leg of the resistor with a jumper cable to the digital pin 8 of our ardunio uno material (You can connect your jumper cable to any digital pin you want between 2-13). The circuit diagram is below. Now let's come to our codes in mBlock; In the Mblock program, we add the Arduino program starter code from the Robots menu. After adding the forever from the control menu, we add the code to whichever digital pin we connected our led to the inside of the "Robots menu ... we add the code to make the pin low. We write 8 because I connect it to digital pin 8. We do not light our led with the code of s...
