How can I stop my swift app from crashing in simulator

Question

I am trying to build a tip calculator using swift 3 and Xcode. I have written a function and I am trying to simply test that and make sure it is doing what it should and I'll worry about formatting later. However, even without any build or run errors it crashes when I try to run it in the simulator. In regards to whatever answers I may receive, I am very new to this and my teacher doesn't have us using a book so I am not very familiar with the correct terminology. I have pasted my code and the crash log.

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var billAmount: UITextField!
    @IBOutlet weak var fifteenTip: UIButton!
    @IBOutlet weak var twentyTip: UIButton!
    @IBOutlet weak var twentyFiveTip: UIButton!
    @IBOutlet weak var tipTotal: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var grandTotal: UILabel!



        override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    }

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }

    func calcTip(num1: Double, num2: Double){
        print("Tip: \(num1 * num2)")
    }

    @IBAction func calcFifteen(_ sender: Any) {
        let billA = Double(billAmount.text!)
        let tipA = 0.15
        calcTip(num1: billA!, num2: tipA)

    }

    @IBAction func calcTwenty(_ sender: Any) {

        let billA = Double(billAmount.text!)
        let tipA = 0.20
        calcTip(num1: billA!, num2: tipA)

    }

    /*@IBAction func calcTwentyFive(_ sender: Any) {

        let billA = Double(billAmount.text!)
        let tipA = 0.25
        calcTip(num1: billA!, num2: tipA)
    }*/

It could be because of you have one or more bad outlets. Go to storyboard and right click on your controller, and see if every connection is okay. If it is not, it would show you yellow warning sign. If it's yellow, just delete it and make the connection again. I hope this helps. — Vandan Patel, Feb 12 '17 at 01:44

Try to remove the comments from this action: calcTwentyFive, and run your App. If that didn't help you, check out all of your outlets and actions.

It seems that you forgot to list one of your actions/outlet in UIViewController. Basically, click on each item you have in Main.StoryBoard, and click the arrow to the right to check the connection as the following image:

Make sure all of your outlets and actions are found in UIViewController.
