Fat Gram Calculator

Design a program that asks for the number of fat grams and calories in a food item.

Validate the input as follows:

  • Make sure the number of fat grams and calories is not less than 0.
  • According to nutritional formulas, the number of calories cannot exceed fat grams X 9. Make sure that the number of calories entered is not greater than fat grams X 9.

Once correct data has been entered, the program should calculate and display the percentage of calories that come from fat. Use the following formula:

P e r c e n t a g e   o f   c a l o r i e s   f r o m   f a t = ( F a t   g r a m s × 9 )   ÷ C a l o r i e s

Some nutritionists classify a food as “low fat” if less than 30 percent of its calories come from fat. If the results of this formula are less than 0.3, the program should display a message indicating the food is low in fat.
