There are more elegant ways of doing this but I have kept it simple and omitted boundary checks and suchlike so that you should be able to understand the logic.

Hey. This is pretty easy stuff but I'm learning the basics of Unix at the moment so keep that in mind. I have to:
1) Write a C-shell script to monitor user activity on the server for 13 minutes.
2) Then print the smallest and largest number of users during these 13 minutes.

In the game of “Unique”, multiple players privately choose an integer. They then reveal
their choice. The winner is the player who chose the smallest unique number. The
game is considered a draw if no unique integer was chosen.

parse_time
PARSE_TIME(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PARSE_TIME(3)NAME
parse_time, print_time_table, unparse_time, unparse_time_approx, -- parse and unparse time intervals
LIBRARY
The roken library (libroken, -lroken)
SYNOPSIS
#include <parse_time.h>
int
parse_time(const char *timespec, const char *def_unit);
void
print_time_table(FILE *f);
size_t
unparse_time(int seconds, char *buf, size_t len);
size_t
unparse_time_approx(int seconds, char *buf, size_t len);
DESCRIPTION
The parse_time() function converts a the period of time specified in into a number of seconds. The timespec can be any number of <number
unit> pairs separated by comma and whitespace. The number can be negative. Number without explicit units are taken as being def_unit.
The unparse_time() and unparse_time_approx() does the opposite of parse_time(), that is they take a number of seconds and express that as
human readable string. unparse_time produces an exact time, while unparse_time_approx restricts the result to only include one units.
print_time_table() prints a descriptive list of available units on the passed file descriptor.
The possible units include:
second, s
minute, m
hour, h
day
week seven days
month 30 days
year 365 days
Units names can be arbitrarily abbreviated (as long as they are unique).
RETURN VALUES
parse_time() returns the number of seconds that represents the expression in timespec or -1 on error. unparse_time() and
unparse_time_approx() return the number of characters written to buf. if the return value is greater than or equal to the len argument, the
string was too short and some of the printed characters were discarded.
EXAMPLES
#include <stdio.h>
#include <parse_time.h>
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int i;
int result;
char buf[128];
print_time_table(stdout);
for (i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
result = parse_time(argv[i], "second");
if(result == -1) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: parse error
", argv[i]);
continue;
}
printf("--
");
printf("parse_time = %d
", result);
unparse_time(result, buf, sizeof(buf));
printf("unparse_time = %s
", buf);
unparse_time_approx(result, buf, sizeof(buf));
printf("unparse_time_approx = %s
", buf);
}
return 0;
}
$ ./a.out "1 minute 30 seconds" "90 s" "1 y -1 s"
1 year = 365 days
1 month = 30 days
1 week = 7 days
1 day = 24 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
1 second
--
parse_time = 90
unparse_time = 1 minute 30 seconds
unparse_time_approx = 1 minute
--
parse_time = 90
unparse_time = 1 minute 30 seconds
unparse_time_approx = 1 minute
--
parse_time = 31535999
unparse_time = 12 months 4 days 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds
unparse_time_approx = 12 months
BUGS
Since parse_time() returns -1 on error there is no way to parse "minus one second". Currently "s" at the end of units is ignored. This is a
hack for English plural forms. If these functions are ever localised, this scheme will have to change.
