I need help really quick, this is due in an hour. Here is my new code, I just need to figure out how to get the user input to do the correct command, which is why I left the "if choice" blank...or should it be "if $choice" ?
read -p "How would you like the file to be sorted?
1) Alphabetically by name
2) By Land Area
3) By Population
Enter number choice here: " choice
read choice
if choice
then
awk '{ print $2, $3, $4 }' fifty_states.txt > states_alpha.txt
sort states_alpha.txt
fi
if choice
then
awk '{ print $2, $3, $4 }' fifty_states.txt > states_land.txt
sort -k +1 states_land.txt
fi
if choice
then
awk '{ print $2, $4, $3 }' fifty_states.txt > states_pop.txt
sort -k +1 states_pop.txt
fi
We are not going to do your homework for you.
I suggest again that you look at the man page for the test command so you can craft your if statements to look something like:

AMC-IMPRIME(1) Auto Multiple Choice AMC-IMPRIME(1)NAME
AMC-imprime - prints AMC multiple choice answer sheets to be distributed to the students
SYNOPSIS
auto-multiple-choice imprime --sujet subject.pdf --fich-nums numbers-file.txt --data data-dir --methode method
[where-to-print-arguments...]
DESCRIPTION
The AMC-imprime.pl command prints selected copies from a AMC multiple choice answer sheet.
What to print
The following arguments describe what to print:
--sujet subject.pdf
sets the subject file (prepared by AMC-prepare(1)).
--fich-nums numbers-file.txt
gives a file where the numbers of the copies to be printed are written (one number per line). If this argument is not given, all the
copies will be printed.
--data data-dir
gives the directory where data files are (see for example AMC-meptex(1)). The layout database in the data directory is used to know at
which page of the subject file each copy begins and ends.
Where to print
Several printing methods are currently defined:
o with "--methode CUPS", AMC-imprime.pl prints to a CUPS printer. One print job is sent for each copy, allowing for exemple to use
stapling. Use the following options with this method:
--imprimante printer
sets the CUPS printer name to print to.
--options cups-options
gives CUPS options, in the opt1=value1,opt2=value2,... format.
o with "--methode file", AMC-imprime.pl outputs the answer sheets to files (one for each copy).
--output filename
sets the filename for outputs. The '%e' sequence will be replaced by a 4-digits copy number. If filename does not contain '%e', the
string '-%e.pdf' will be added at its end.
o with "--methode command", AMC-imprime.pl will use a provided command for each copy.
--print-command command
gives the command to be used for printing. The command string will be split at each space character (even when using quotes...).
The sequence '%f' will be replaced by a PDF filename (containing the copy to print), and '%e' will be replaced by the copy number.
