Full Restaurant Program

Here is the correct program, suitable for copying to a file and running. Hopefully you figured out the proper order for the lines. You should be able to read the program almost like a story in normal English.

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

class RestaurantBill
{
  public static void main (String[] args)  

  {
    Scanner scan = new Scanner( System.in );
    double basicCost;

    System.out.print("Enter the basic cost: ");
    basicCost = scan.nextDouble();

    System.out.println("basic cost: " +  basicCost + " total cost: " + 
         (basicCost + basicCost*0.06 + basicCost*0.20) );
  }
}

As you read the story (the program) it should make sense. Actions should follow in a logical order. The logic is the important part, not the fussy details of syntax.
