Running Head: Calorie Management1Week5 Final Project: Calorie ManagementPRG/211In the Week 5 Final Project for the Calorie Management program, the pseudo-codeoutlines the steps involved in tracking a user’s calorie intake, exercise, and calculatingtheir BMI.Describe the steps the program follows to determine whether the user gainsor loses weight, and explain how the Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated andinterpreted. Additionally, discuss how testing and debugging the program contribute toensuring its functionality and accuracy. Provide a minimum of 500 words for yourresponse.

Calorie Management2IntroductionDevelopment teams and programmers possess the knowledge of writing code to educethe power of computers to solve problems and perform various tasks. Proper communicationwith customers and organizations ensures athoroughunderstanding of a particular problem so aprogram can be designed to meet needs and expectations of customers and organizations.Successfully solving problems with program software requires planning and analyzing to ensureall aspects of the problem meet the required expectations.Planning your program using asequence of steps referred to as the program development cycle, will enable you to use your timeefficiently and will help you design error-free programs that producethe desired output”(INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Focus Program).A programmer needs to first understand the problem or need to be addressed so a viableplan can be created to solve the issue. The programmer then needs to analyzethe problem usingthe information given to provide the results needed. The programmer would then design aprogram to solve the problem based on the needs of the organization. The program then needs tobe coded by writing statements in computer language to carry out the program design. After theprogram has been implemented it needs to be tested to ensure the program solves the problem itwas intended to resolve.Problem StatementAn organization has awarded our program development team a contract to develop aprogram to manage daily calorie intake. The organization wants to identify if whether a person isbalancing calories consumed with those being expended. Our programmers are to take intoaccount the balance of calories daily by gaining knowledge of what foods and beverages contain
