Add another reactive expression

A reactive expression can call other reactive expressions. This allows you to modularize computations and ensure that they are NOT executed repeatedly. Mastering the use of reactive expressions is key to building performant Shiny applications.

In this exercise, you will use a reactive expression to calculate the health status based on the BMI.

  # return health status as underweight etc. based on inputs
  
  
  
  
  output$bmi <- renderText({
    bmi <- rval_bmi()
    paste("Your BMI is", round(bmi, 1))

    # reactive expression rval_bmi_status
    bmi_status <- cut(rval_bmi(), 
      breaks = c(0, 18.5, 24.9, 29.9, 40),
      labels = c('underweight', 'healthy', 'overweight', 'obese')
    )
