Car or Motorcycle

Image you needed to create a website to sell cars or motorcycles (pick for yourself). What data would you need to store about each car? Name at least 5. Propose names for variables for each.

BMI Personalization

Extend the BMI example (section on operators) to ask the user for his/her name and gender so a more personalized message can be outputted to the terminal.

What if the person did not like to provide its name. How would you handle that? Can you model it in the flowchart?
