specifier format?

[sherri statham]

actually what is the following, I can seem too understand it.

Using appropriate format specifiers and horizontal tabs, DISPLAY one line for each

product, its quantity sold, its unit price and its total sales

ASSIGN the sum of product1Sales through product5Sales TO totalSalesAllProducts

Using appropriate format specifiers and horizontal tabs, DISPLAY the �Total Sales� line


here is my code
