 The Muggy Weather Robotics Duo A C++ System That Thinks, Feels (Sensors!), and Acts Humidity is like the quiet character in the weather story that actually runs the show. On muggy days, everything feels heavier—breathing, drying laundry, running machines, even keeping a data center cool. For people, it’s about comfort and health; for machines, it’s about performance and reliability; for plants and buildings, it’s about moisture balance and mold risk. In robotics and automation, muggy weather isn’t just a nuisance—it’s a signal . It tells your systems when to ventilate, when to dehumidify, when to throttle physically demanding tasks, and when to take preventative maintenance actions. Today, we’ll build a two-program C++ system that “understands” muggy weather: Program A — sensor_hub.cpp A sensor-side program that generates (or ingests) a live stream of environmental data (temperature, relative humidity, pressure, CO₂, VOCs). Think of it as your robotic nose and skin , con...

C++ Mini Projects: BMI Calculator

C++ Mini Projects BMI Calculator 


Hey guys I'm back with another cool project. This going to be the third calculator in our series the first one with the basic calculator the second one was a student calculator and now this going to be a BMI calculator. I hope you're enjoying this series and gaining something from it. Now let's smash this project too!

Description: Project: BMI Calculator

Explanation..

Asking the user to input thier height ( meters) and weight (kilograms)

Calculating bmi( body mass index) with the help of formula 

Bmi= weight/height *height 

Categorize bmi into different health 
Options 

Underweight ...bmi<18.5
Normal weight...18.5</bmi<24.9
Overweight...25</bmi <29.9
Obesity...bmi >/30

You will learn throughout

Validates the input...

Making sure that height and weight are positive numbers 

Calculations...calculate bmi

Conditional statements...
Categorizing bmi. 

Code to build the desired project


#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip> // For setting decimal precision
using namespace std;

int main() {
    double weight, height, bmi;

    // Input: Weight and height
    cout << "BMI Calculator\n";
    cout << "--------------\n";

    // Input weight
    cout << "Enter your weight in kilograms: ";
    cin >> weight;
    while (weight <= 0) {
        cout << "Invalid weight. Please enter a positive number: ";
        cin >> weight;
    }

    // Input height
    cout << "Enter your height in meters: ";
    cin >> height;
    while (height <= 0) {
        cout << "Invalid height. Please enter a positive number: ";
        cin >> height;
    }

    // Calculate BMI
    bmi = weight / (height * height);

    // Display BMI with precision
    cout << fixed << setprecision(2); // Limit output to 2 decimal places
    cout << "\nYour BMI is: " << bmi << endl;

    // Determine health category
    if (bmi < 18.5) {
        cout << "Category: Underweight\n";
    } else if (bmi >= 18.5 && bmi < 24.9) {
        cout << "Category: Normal weight\n";
    } else if (bmi >= 25 && bmi < 29.9) {
        cout << "Category: Overweight\n";
    } else {
        cout << "Category: Obesity\n";
    }

    return 0;
}

Explanation of the code


Input of height and weight 

cout << "Enter your weight in kilograms: ";
cin >> weight;
while (weight <= 0) {
    cout << "Invalid weight. Please enter a positive number: ";
    cin >> weight;
}


Asking the user for his/her height and weight. Using the while loop to validate the input, making sure that height and weight input are positive numbers.

Calculation of bmi...
bmi = weight / (height * height);
Height is squared for matching the bmi formula 


Displaying the bmi...
cout << fixed << setprecision(2); // Limit output to 2 decimal places
cout << "Your BMI is: " << bmi << endl;

Setprecision(2): For making sure that bmi is correctly displayed with two decimal places, for the purpose of readability.

Determination of health category...
if (bmi < 18.5) {
    cout << "Category: Underweight\n";
} else if (bmi >= 18.5 && bmi < 24.9) {
    cout << "Category: Normal weight\n";
} else if (bmi >= 25 && bmi < 29.9) {
    cout << "Category: Overweight\n";
} else {
    cout << "Category: Obesity\n";
}

Using if-else statements for comparing of bmi values against given thresholds.

Assignment of health category according to bmi.


Sample running of the program 


Example of input and output 

BMI Calculator
--------------
Enter your weight in kilograms: 68
Enter your height in meters: 1.75

Your BMI is: 22.20
Category: Normal weight

Example 2

BMI Calculator
--------------
Enter your weight in kilograms: 85
Enter your height in meters: 1.70

Your BMI is: 29.41
Category: Overweight

I hope you like the idea and built the program on your own. If minor errors come across your way, then don't be discouraged because there are a million of resources from which you can get help including popular websites like stack overflow and nowadays AI. Keep building something great! 

See you next time with another cool project!

C++ Projects: Basic Traffic Management System A traffic management system simulates traffic flow, manages signals, and ensures smooth operations. Components: Signals : Control vehicle flow at intersections. Vehicles : Simulate traffic movement. Logic of Intersection : Manages signal timing and crossing safety. Simulation : Displays real-time traffic flow. Tools Used: Classes : For modeling signals and vehicles. Functions : For controlling traffic flow. System Design TrafficLight Class Manages signals with three states: RED, YELLOW, and GREEN . Code: #include <iostream> #include <string> enum LightState { RED, YELLOW, GREEN }; class TrafficLight { LightState state; int timer; public: TrafficLight() : state(RED), timer(10) {} void changeState() { if (state == RED) { state = GREEN; timer = 15; } else if (state == GREEN) { state = YELLOW; timer = 5; } else { ...
