The Metric Conversion application is a menu-driven program. First, the program displays a Main Menu that states the purpose of the program and allows the user to select one of five metric system measurements or quit the program in the following manner:
Press the 1 key to convert meters to U.S. yards
Press the 2 key to convert kilometers to U.S. miles
Press the 3 key to convert kilograms to U.S. pounds
Press the 4 key to convert milliliters to U.S. ounces
Press the 5 key to convert liters to U.S. gallons
Press the 6 key to quit the program

After user enters a metric measurement amount and the program confirms the entry is valid, the program converts the metric amount to an equivalent amount of a corresponding U.S. measurement.
Finally, the program then displays the equivalent U.S. measurement amount in the following manner:
10.25 meters is equivalent to 11.2094 U.S. yards
