66. Consider the following code snippet which is supposed to show the total order amount when the button is clicked:
public static void main(String[] args)
{
final Order myOrder = new Order();
JButton button = new JButton("Calculate");
final JLabel label = new JLabel("Total amount due");
. . .
class MyListener implements ActionListener
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
