BMI calculator in python using if statements
i am a beginner in the python language and i wrote a bmi calculator and i am wondering if there are any improvements i could make to the code? This is the code below:
print('Enter your weight in kilo:')
weightInKilo = float(input())
print('Enter your height in feet:')
heightInFeet = float(input())
heightInMeter = heightInFeet * 12 * 0.025
bodyMassIndex = weightInKilo / (heightInMeter ** 2)
if bodyMassIndex < 15:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are very severely underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex >= 15 and bodyMassIndex <= 16 :
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are severely underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 16 and bodyMassIndex <= 18.5:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 18.5 and bodyMassIndex <= 25:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are Normal(healthy weight).')
elif bodyMassIndex > 25 and bodyMassIndex <= 30:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are overweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 30 and bodyMassIndex <= 35:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are moderately obese.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 35 and bodyMassIndex <= 40:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are severely obese.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 40:
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' You are very severely obese.')

Well, you could refactor the print part and extract it to a function like this:
def printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, message):
print('Your BMI = ' + str(bodyMassIndex) + ' ' + message)
print('Enter your weight in kilo:')
weightInKilo = float(input())
print('Enter your height in feet:')
heightInFeet = float(input())
heightInMeter = heightInFeet * 12 * 0.025
bodyMassIndex = weightInKilo / (heightInMeter ** 2)
if bodyMassIndex < 15:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are very severely underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex >= 15 and bodyMassIndex <= 16 :
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are severely underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 16 and bodyMassIndex <= 18.5:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are underweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 18.5 and bodyMassIndex <= 25:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are Normal(healthy weight).')
elif bodyMassIndex > 25 and bodyMassIndex <= 30:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are overweight.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 30 and bodyMassIndex <= 35:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are moderately obese.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 35 and bodyMassIndex <= 40:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are severely obese.')
elif bodyMassIndex > 40:
printBMIMessage(bodyMassIndex, 'You are very severely obese.')
