How do i write this equation for C++?

[banithel]

BMI = 703*weight / height^2

how i thought to write it was:

(703 * getWeight / pow(getWeight, 2.0)

which is wrong.

Any help with this would be great please.

getWeight, is that a method?
And you're using getWeight for both weight and height?!

[banithel]

Sorry for the typo it should be

(703 * getWeight / pow(getHeight, 2.0)

And both getWeight and getHeight are variables for entering in the console.

(I am in intro to C++ class and dont get the equations)

Ok, that acually works now, I had it actually written as above with getWeight twice, thanks for pointing that out liuyang
