Measure CPU and GPU temperature of Raspberry PI

A simple script to measure the temperature of CPU and GPU of Raspberry Pi. The below script is tested on Raspberry Pi model 2, 3B and 3B+.

The script uses vcgencmd to get GPU temperature from the video core and reads CPU temperature from sysfs

Running the script

Download the script from gist to the Raspberry Pi.
Set appropriate permission to the file.
```
chmod 775 pi-temp-measure.sh
```
Run the script
```
./pi-temp-measure.sh
```

The script provides an output as follows
