Beginner Scripting for school
Hello people, I am new to the forum and to scripting and I'm honored to be a part of the Forum 
At the moment I'm learning to do basic scripting for school.
Now I got 2 assignments that I do not understand. The case scripting I have mastered a bit. But now I have an assingment to make with ''set date'' and I hope you guys can help me
First assignment is to make a script where that knows when it is Morning,afternoon or evening.
It must use $LOGINNAME to determine whether it's
Good morning <loginname>
Good afternoon <loginname>
Good evening < loginname>
So when you for example put in the commandline: ./timeofday
It must say Good Morning Patrick ( if its morning ).
Or Good afternoon Patrick ( if its the afternoon )
I hope you guys understand what I mean, my english isnt very good.
Second assignment is to make a script that when you put in a ''letter'' it says: You have entered the letter M
And when you put in number it says: You have entered the number 7.
I hope you guys can help me with it.
Much Appreciated
Kind Regards
hulsi

gvrng
gvrng(1) gvrng(1) NAME
gvrng - An interactive, introductory programming language. SYNTAX
gvrng [world file | program file] DESCRIPTION
Guido van Robot is a project developed by advanced high school students for use by their peers as a learning tool and precursor to the fur- ther study of programming with Python. It is a minimalistic programming language providing just enough syntax to help students learn the concepts of sequencing, conditional branching, looping and procedural abstraction. It's biggest strength is that it permits this learning in an environment that combines the thrill of problem-solving with instant visual feedback. In short, it is an interactive, introductory programming language that is excellent for learning the basic concepts of programming, applicable in any high-level language. Best of all, it's a whole lot of fun, too! At this point, you are probably asking yourself, "What is GvRng, specifically?" The gist of it is that it is a robot represented by a tri- angle on the screen that moves around in a world made up of streets and avenues, walls and "beepers", which Guido can collect or set. His actions are completely guided by a program written by the user. FILES
