First, sorry for starting a new post - I didn't want anyone to have to read=
 through the whole first one when the questions were completely different :=
/

Second, I honestly have no idea how to answer your questions.  I am a sopho=
more in high school and I am trying to learn this on my own because my teac=
her is not very good at explaining things. =20

i just cant figure out how to get the total when an order is placed without=
 the customer ordering at least one of each item.  I also can't figure out =
how to get the shipping to calculate correctly. It is an intro class and we=
 are using just the basics. Most of what Mitya said is stuff I've never see=
n before, although I am very grateful for her response, I am supposed to us=
e only what the teacher "taught".

Sorry if I frustrated you.  I'm just a kid trying to learn. Any help is app=
reciated
