-------------Problem------------
// To convert fabric measures in square meters to square yards

-------------Analysis-----------
See page 34 for details
DATA REQUIREMENTS
  Constants
	meters_to_yards=1.196
  Inputs
	size_in_sqmeters	--the fabric size to square meters
  Outputs
	size_in_sqyards		--the fabric size in square yards
FORMULAE
	1 square meter equals 1.196 square yards
	

--------------Design-------------

INITIAL ALGORITHM
1. Read the frabric size in square meters
2. Convert the fabric size to square meters
3. Display the fabric size in square yards
REFINEMENTS
2.1 the fabric size in square yards is 1.196 * the fabric size to square meters
