A jiffy is the scientific name for 1/100th of a second

## 7.18 LAB: A jiffy

A "jiffy" is the scientific name for 1/100th of a second. Define a function named `JiffiesToSeconds` that takes a float as a parameter, representing the number of "jiffies", and returns a float that represents the number of seconds. Then, write a main program that reads the number of jiffies as an input, calls function `JiffiesToSeconds()` with the input as an argument, and outputs the number of seconds.

Output each floating-point value with three digits after the decimal point, which can be achieved as follows:
```c
printf("%.3lf\n", yourValue);
```
### Example
If the input is:
```
15.25
```
the output is:
```
0.152
```
### Instructions
The program must define and call a function:
```c
double JiffiesToSeconds(double userJiffies)
```

### Code Template
Below is the template of the code in which you need to define your function and write the main program:
```c
#include <stdio.h>

// Define your function here

int main(void) {
   // Type your code here
}
```
Make sure to use the given template and complete the task by defining the necessary function and writing the main program logic to meet the outlined requirements.
