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.

Pacman Game on Scratch Program

 We will make an example of pacman game making with Scratch. Before starting the Pacman Game example that we will do with Scratch, we download the background for the pacman game from the internet and add it to the backdrop part in Scratch. When the background I downloaded was dark, I painted the dark colors with white. I made the borders thicker. After adding our background to our work, it came to creating the pacman character. I drew a full circle in yellow for the Pacman character. After that, I drew two lines towards the center using the line tool. I erased the remaining part with an eraser. If you want, you can use the erase background tool to erase between two black lines. Thus, our pacman character took his place with his mouth open. I created a guide dot right in front of the pacman character. This will keep us moving. I created a red dot. It's a little obvious, you can make this red dot smaller if you want, you can give it another color and make it more invisible. After cre...

How To Make Bubble Shooter Game on Scratch Program

 We will make a bubble shooter game example with Scratch. I am adding 3 balloons and a target picture for the bubble shooter game we will make with Scratch. (You can increase the number of balloons). Now I come to the codes to be written inside balloon1. Let the number of balloons popped when the green flag is clicked is 0. Thus, the remaining numbers from the previous game are reset. Let the balloons be hidden at first. Then, it will appear in a random place between the coordinates we have determined at a random time between 1-5 seconds, wait for 2 seconds, then hide. X: The coordinates between -218/144 are the coordinates of the far left and the right of the screen, Y:134/-235 are the coordinates of the top and bottom of the screen. It will appear randomly in these ranges If our balloon is aimed and hit by the target; Balloon shot news is released. When this news reaches our balloon, the balloon will be hidden. Copy and paste the same code above.   Then we say duplicate...

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...
