This script is a BMI (Body Mass Index) calculator designed to interactively gather a user's weight in kilograms and height in meters through a dialog box. Upon input, it calculates the BMI by dividing the weight by the square of the height. The result is then displayed to the user along with a personalized greeting. Additionally, the script evaluates the calculated BMI to provide a health status indicator, classifying the user's weight category as very underweight, underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. This classification is based on established BMI thresholds and is displayed alongside the numerical BMI value.
