Textbook Question

Chapter 4, Problem 18PC

Fat Gram Calculator

Write a program that asks for the number of calories and fat grams in a food. The program should display the percentage of calories that come from fat. If the calories from fat are less than 30 percent of the total calories of the food, it should also display a message indicating that the food is low in fat.

One gram of fat has 9 calories, so

Calories from fat = fat grains * 9

The percentage of calories from fat can be calculated as

Calories from fat ÷ total calories

Input Validation: Make sure the number of calories and fat grams are not less than 0. Also, the number of calories from fat cannot be greater than the total number of calories. If that happens, display an error message indicating that either the calories or fat grams were incorrectly entered.
