        This is a classic programming task. 
        The easiest approach (IMHO) could be this: You receive an input 
value, you have a series of diferent coins (10 cents, 25 cents, etc.). I 
wolud first try to give the the total amount in the lower of the coins (say 
return 1 cents coins). Then return one of the inmediate lower (say 5 cents) 
and the rest in 1 cents. Repeat this for the rest of the coins.
        Good luck!!!
Bye, Andres.
