Assignment and else if statements
<p>I am not to sure what the error is in my code but the order variable does not seem to initialise properly and hence my gui displays the wrong output, for example when cheese,tomato and chicken are selected it only displays Chicken with Tomato Tomato $12.75. Any help will be greatly appreciated :)</p>
