C Shell Script to convert a number into minutes

Could anyone tell me how to write a C shell script according to the following requirement.

Write a C shell script convertmin which will read in a number, thought of as representing minutes, and print out the number of hours/minutes it represents so:

Note: you are required to check exception cases: such as negative number, whether the input is numeric, etc

$ convertmin
Enter a number of minutes:
128

Result
128 minutes is 2 hours and 8 minutes
