Can someone please show me a very simple "expect" script to change password in Solaris please?

Ladies & Gents,

Can one of you gurus please show me a very simple "expect" script to change the password in Solaris in a script, please? Nothing fancy, no error checking, no nothing. Just to change the password of a new user, it's all.

Many thanks in advance. U guys have honestly earned my respect. I hope to seen be able to also contribute to this wonderful community. I need to work harder and improve my skill set first.
