Sounds like a homework problem from school.--
Develop your programs, and when you run into specific questions, ask.

Subject: solving a complex problem
Hi,
How to write a program logic for below problem:-
Chef's ingredients:-
1.The chef receives exactly 1 ingredient per day from the market.The
ingredients never repeat.
2. Every ingredient belongs to 1 of the 3 categories namely FIBER,FAT
& CARB.
3.Every ingredient has a unique ingredient id.
4.The ingredient id always starts with the category name
(ex:FIBERBroccoli,FATCheese,CARBRice)
Chef's Dishes
1. All of the chef's dishes have a constant number of
ingredients.(this will be your program's input)
2. All the ingredients used will be fully used in a Dish. The chef doesn'
use some part/quntity of an ingredient.
3.All of the chef's dishes mush have at least 60% of the ingredients
from a single category.(i.e. if the chef cooks using
4 ingredients,then at leaast 3 FAT ingredients OR at least 3 FIBER
ingredients OR at least 3 CARB ingredients are needed)
Chef's Cooking style:-
1. If the chef has multiple options of ingredients for the dish,then
he takes the oldest possible ones to cook in the order of their arrival.
2.After the chef prepares a dish,the ingredients used can Not be
reused as theyhave been already used.
3.The chef prepares a maximum of 1 dish per day.
4.if the Chef does not have enough ingredients to cook the dish with
above mentioned rules,then he does not cook on that day.
Given the input array of ingredient id that the chef receives every
day (i.e. array index is the day number) write a program to print when
does the chef cook a dish and when he does not.
Input:-
Line 1: The total number of days for the scope of the
problem(1<=input<=20)
Line 2: The exact number of ingredients that chef uses to
cook(1<=input<=20)
Line 3: The space separated ingredient
ids.(6<=length(ingredientid)<=20)
Output:- Print the ":" separated used ingredient ids in order of their
arrival if the chef cooks on that day and print "-" if the chef
doesn't cook anything on that day.Print the output as single string.
Example input 1:
5
3
FATOil FATCheese FATEgg FIBERSpinach CARBRice FIBERBeans
Example INPUT 2:
6
3
FATOil:FATCheese FATEgg FIBERSpinach CARBRice FIBERBeans
EXAMPLE OUTPUT 2:
--FATOil:FATCheese:FATEgg--FIBERSpinach:CARBRice:FIBERBeans
EXAMPLE INPUT 3:
12
4
FATOil FIBERSpinach CARBRice FATCheese FIBERBeans FATEgg FIBERBroccoil
CARBPotato CARBCorn FATOlive FIBERCarrot
Thanks
