Problem 1382. Schwarzschild radius
Compute the Schwarzschild radius for objects of mass m (kg). Use c = 299,792.458 km/s and G = 6.6738*10^-11 N*(m/kg)^2. Your function should give the result in m.

Please check the answers for the test suite, as I think there may be a unit discrepancy here with c in km/sec and G in N*(m/kg)^2.

The problem doesn't mention it, but you should round the result to four decimal digits.
