Write a script using a Linux shell programming language to perform clock management for a small daycare.
The program should manage all time in and out routines. At the end of the each day should give the Total hours worked that day.
Example:
I have no clue where to start. I tried take in the user's input for IN/OUT Time, but then I'm not sure how to parse it to calculate the total hours. Not sure if there is another approach for this.

Please use code tags for samples, as per forum rules.
This appears to be homework.

That sounds like an assignment given to a student.

Dear Folks,

Hi Experts,
In a particular dir, I have many files *AJAY*.
How can I get total size of all such files.
I tried du -hs *AJAY* but it gave me individual size of all files.
All I require is summation of all.
Thanks,

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD
leave
LEAVE(1) BSD General Commands Manual LEAVE(1)NAME
leave -- remind you when you have to leave
SYNOPSIS
leave [[+]hhmm]
DESCRIPTION
leave waits until the specified time (within the next 12 hours), then reminds you that you have to leave by writing to the TTY that you exe-
cuted leave on.
You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute before the actual time, at the time, and every minute thereafter. When you log off, leave exits just
before it would have printed the next message.
OPTIONS
hhmm The time of day is in the form hhmm where hh is a time in hours (on a 12 or 24 hour clock), and mm are minutes.
However, all times are converted to a 12 hour clock, and assumed to be in the next 12 hours. An attempt to set an alarm for farther
into the future will be truncated to within the next 12 hours.
+ If the time is preceded by '+', the alarm will go off in hours and minutes from the current time.
If no argument is given, leave prompts with "When do you have to leave?". A reply of newline causes leave to exit, otherwise the reply is
assumed to be a time. This form is suitable for inclusion in a ~/.login or ~/.profile.
SEE ALSO calendar(1), csh(1), sh(1)HISTORY
The leave command appeared in 3.0BSD.
BUGS
In the modern age with X(7) and window multiplexing programs like window(1) and screen(1), the leave command's reminders and admonitions
might not be seen if the user has the window where leave was started minimized or obscured.
This all begs for a more general user notifications system to be implemented.
