In this project, we will build up an Advanced BMI Calculator by the tkinter<\/u><\/a>\u00a0library of Python. It is the standard GUI library of Python. With the help of sliders, the user can mention their height and weight, by clicking the report button they can see their calculated BMI and get the message about their health condition. The image inserted will get resized according to the movement of the slider, which is possible by the \u201cImage\u201d & \u201cImageTk\u201d <\/strong>libraries under the \u00a0PIL<\/u><\/a>\u00a0module of Python. Let\u2019s dig deep into the steps to build this project!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The first step is importing all the necessary libraries using the \u201cimport\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0keyword. For the latest version, the tkinter module comes under the future module. So first, we have to install the\u00a0future<\/u><\/a>\u00a0module with the help of the command\u00a0\u201cpip install <module-name>”<\/strong>. The future module is a built-in module in Python that inherits new features which are available in the latest Python versions. With \u201cfuture. moves\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0we will import the tkinter module.<\/p>

For creating the GUI we will import the tkinter module, to style the tkinter widgets we will import the ttk<\/u><\/a>\u00a0module, and finally, to add image processing capabilities we will import the PIL module.<\/p>

In the next step, to create an object of the tkinter frame will use \u201c.Tk()\u201d<\/strong>.With this, we will also set the title and geometry of our tkinter application. To set the background color for the project we will use \u201c.config(bg=<color name>)\u201d<\/strong>. And so, with that, we have set \u201cgrey\u201d <\/strong>as the background color for this project.<\/p>

We will create a Label widget for the heading stating \u201cBMI CALCULATOR\u201d <\/strong>by using the \u201c.Label()\u201d <\/strong>and with the help of \u201c.place()\u201d <\/strong>we will set the position for the label accordingly. With this, one more label will be created of the color \u201clight cyan\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0for packing the parent widget from the bottom side by using the \u201c.pack(side=\u201d bottom\u201d)\u201d<\/strong>. After making these two labels you will be able to see that our GUI got divided into two areas i.e. one with grey and the other with light cyan.<\/p>

The next step is to place the images of the two boxes containing the height and weight parameters and a scale image. For this process, first, we will get the image to our application by \u201c.PhotoImage(file=<filename>)\u201d<\/strong>, in addition to this we will also create the label for this image and then with the help of \u201c.place()\u201d <\/strong>\u00a0we will set the positions of the two boxes.<\/p>

The same procedure will get followed for the scale image to appear on our tkinter application.<\/p>

Now, we want a slider to appear on the boxes. To handle the floating data we will initialize the variable by using the \u201c.DoubleVar()\u201d<\/strong>. In the next step, we made a function named \u201cget_current()\u201d <\/strong>to get the current value for height and \u201cget_current2()\u201d <\/strong>for the weight. With the help of \u201cttk. Scale()\u201d <\/strong>will get the slider on the window and by using the \u201c<\/strong>\u00a0.place()\u201d <\/strong>\u00a0we will set the position of the sliders such that they may appear inside the boxes. The same procedure will get followed for another slider to get appear under the weight box<\/p>

The next thing we want to accomplish is that when we make use of the slider under the box considering the height of the person then accordingly the image should get resized for the user interaction. So, first of all, we will open the image by \u201cImage. open()\u201d <\/strong>and by the” .resize()\u201d <\/strong>we will make the image resizable, and by \u201cImageTk.PhotoImage()\u201d <\/strong>will make the resizable image appear on the window and we will place it accordingly. All of this part will get covered under another function \u201cslider_c()\u201d .<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

For the numbers to appear and enter we need to create the two entry widgets for height and weight boxes, by using the \u201ctkinter. Entry()\u201d <\/strong>we will do so, and again, with the help of \u201c.place()\u201d <\/strong>we will set their positions.<\/p>

The next step is to provide the result to the user. For doing so, we will create a button widget stating \u201creport\u201d <\/strong>by using \u201ctkinter. Button()\u201d <\/strong>such that whenever the user will click the button, the result will be displayed. Under this widget, we will call the \u201cbmi ()\u201d<\/strong>, a user-defined function that will calculate the BMI from the data.<\/p>

For the result to appear, will again create two label widgets, the first one for showing the Calculated BMI and the other for stating health condition by using the \u201c.Label()\u201d.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
