Practical information v1.2:

- Carb exchanges: 1 Unit/Serving (u/s) is equivalent to 10g of carbohydrates

+ Predefined User Unit (UUP) can be specified, if desired, a default unit of measurement to facilitate your calculations. You only must indicate a weight, a quantity and a description then the calculator can help you, eg. you can define that 5 cookies weighs 30g. thus:
UUP weight = 30g.
UUP quantity = 5
UUP description = cookies
The application will quickly calculate how many units/servings (u/s) equals the multiples of 5 cookies:
1 cookie = 0.4 u/s
2 cookies = 0.8 u/s
3 cookies = 1.2 u/s
...
6 cookies = 2.4 u/s
...

+ Always consider the nutritional information of food, for more detail refer to the nutritional information for each food.

+ ¡¡¡ Be careful with your input data at foods, is the basis for calculations!!!

+ This application performs rounding in calculations:
. grams of carbohydrates for every 100g of food -> 2 decimal places in data entry
. rations (R) -> 1 decimal place
. weight (g) UUP -> 0 decimals in the input data, 1 decimal at calculator
. quantity UUP -> 0 decimals in the input data, 1 decimal at calculator
