Encoding in base64 using awk, grep, sed, or find

[Nur Joo Han Guna Segar]

Hey there,
I would like your help on this matter.
My instructor have asked me to encode a text file into a base64 file by 
using grep, sed, awk or find.
I would appreciate your help
                                                      Thanks
                                                      Joo Han
