Create a C program (assign01.c, producing the executable assign01) that takes any number of command line arguments. For each command line argument (except the first) the program prints the argument, and attempts to open the argument as a directory. If not a directory use perror(3) to print out the English equivalent of the errno. If a directory, then print out the type and name of its contents.
