    Default Help with Java assignment

    I have a java assignment for college that Im stuck on, if any one could help it would be great?

    A restaurant offers 4 main course options on its menu
    1. Turkey and Ham
    2. Steak (5 euro supplement)
    3. Nut Roast (Vegetarian)
    4. Lasagne
    A java program is required that first displays the menu then asks the user to enter the number of people in their party.
    For each person in the party theprogram should read their choice of main course.
    The program should count and display the number of each main course chosen, and the total cost of the booking. Each main course costs 22 euro, steak has a 5 euro supplement, the vegetarian option has a 3 euro discount.

    what to do next?
    Before starting to code a program, you should make a design for it and list the steps that the program needs to do to solve the problem.

    Have you compiled and tested the code that you've written so far?
    When it compiles without errors and tests ok
    then move on to the next step in the list of what the program needs to do.
    What's next in the list?


    Please edit your post and wrap your code with
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
