Write a Python program that can compare the unit (perlb) cost of sugar sold in packages with different weights and prices. The program prompts the user to enter the weight and price of package 1, then does the same for package 2, and displays the results to indicate sugar in which package has a better price. It is assumed that the weight of all packages is measured in lb. The program should check to be sure that both the inputs of weight and price are both positive values.

This program is written using python

It uses less comments (See explanation section for more explanation)

Also, see attachments for proper view of the source code

Program starts here

#Prompt user for price of package 1

price1 = int(input("Enter Price 1: "))

while(price1 <= 0):

     price1 = int(input("Enter Price 1: "))

#Prompt user for weight of package 1

weight1 = int(input("Enter Weight 1: "))

while(weight1 <= 0):

     weight1 = int(input("Enter Weight 1: "))

#Calculate Unit of Package 1

unit1 = float(price1/weight1)

print("Unit cost of Package 1: "+str(unit1))

#Prompt user for price of package 2

price2 = int(input("Enter Price 2: "))

while(price2 <= 0):

     price2 = int(input("Enter Price 2: "))

#Prompt user for weight of package 2

weight2 = int(input("Enter Weight 2: "))

while(weight2 <= 0):

     weight2 = int(input("Enter Weight 2: "))

#Calculate Unit of Package 2

unit2 = float(price2/weight2)

print("Unit cost of Package 2: "+str(unit2))

#Compare units

if unit1 > unit2:

     print("Package 1 has a better price")

elif unit1 == unit2:

     print("Both Packages have the same price")

else:

     print("Package 2 has a better price")

Explanation:

price1 = int(input("Enter Price 1: ")) -> This line prompts the user for price of package 1

The following while statement is executed until user inputs a value greater than 1 for price

while(price1 <= 0):

     price1 = int(input("Enter Price 1: "))

weight1 = int(input("Enter Weight 1: ")) -> This line prompts the user for weight of package 1

The following while statement is executed until user inputs a value greater than 1 for weight

while(weight1 <= 0):

     weight1 = int(input("Enter Weight 1: "))

unit1 = float(price1/weight1) -> This line calculates the unit cost (per weight) of package 1

print("Unit cost of Package 1: "+str(unit1)) -> The unit cost of package 1 is printed using this print statement

price2 = int(input("Enter Price 2: ")) -> This line prompts the user for price of package 2

The following while statement is executed until user inputs a value greater than 1 for price

while(price2 <= 0):

     price2 = int(input("Enter Price 2: "))

weight2 = int(input("Enter Weight 2: ")) -> This line prompts the user for weight of package 2

The following while statement is executed until user inputs a value greater than 1 for weight

while(weight2 <= 0):

     weight2 = int(input("Enter Weight 2: "))

unit2 = float(price2/weight) -> This line calculates the unit cost (per weight) of package 2

print("Unit cost of Package 2: "+str(unit2)) -> The unit cost of package 2 is printed using this print statement

The following if statements compares and prints which package has a better unit cost

if unit1 > unit2:

     print("Package 1 has a better price")

elif unit1 == unit2:

     print("Both Packages have the same price")

else:

     print("Package 2 has a better price")
