Instructions

Write a program that takes an undefined number of arguments which could be considered as options and writes on the standard output a representation of those options as groups of bytes followed by a newline ('\n').

• An option is an argument that begins with a - and that can have multiple characters which could be : -abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

• All options are stocked in a single int and each options represents a bit of that int, and should be stocked like this :

        - 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
        - ******zy xwvutsrq ponmlkji hgfedcba
  

• Launching the program without arguments or with the -h flag activated must print all the valid options on the standard output, as shown on one of the following examples.

• Please note the -h flag has priority over the others flags when it is called first in one of the arguments. (See the examples)

• A wrong option must print Invalid Option followed by a newline.
