Description:
Write a script called convert that takes a command line argument of miles and, by default, converts that number to feet. Also provide

-k option to convert miles to kilometers instead, and
-m option to convert miles to meters instead, and
-r option to convert miles to rods (320 rods to a mile) instead, and
-y option to convert miles to yards instead.

The command should be invoked as follows:

convert [-k] [-m] [-r] [-y] number-of-miles


Multiple options (-k, -m, -r, -y) should be allowed on the same command line with your command. The output should contain summary of all made conversions with proper labels. A complete error handling for wrong options (or other wrong input values) is required. Test the command you have designed and ascertain that it functions correctly


Deliverables:
Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.

Complete copyrights to all work purchased.


Platform:
LINUX 7.2 Bourne Shell

Hi Matt,

I can do this exactly the way you want it and i'll do it by 14.

This is not a difficult task and can be done in a few hours.

I hope to work on this with you again.

Thanks
Chirag
