Hello all,

I am making a simple "printer" with my college for a project using the BlueJ environment, however, i am getting stuck with the last part.

declare a local boolean
assume false
if (there is paper left)
  make copy
  make boolean true
endif
return boolean

This means that i have to check if there is paper left, print the text etc. Could anyone help me with this process? If more data is needed, please let me know but if not, an outline on what to do would be appreciated. Thank you.

Working directly from the pseudo code - declare the boolean and make it false

Check that the paper is left and copy if so

boolean isCopyMade = false;

if (isPaperLeft) // another boolean which is false if there is no paper left

{

     makeCopy(); // calling a function to make the copy

     isCopyMade = true;

}

return (isCopyMade)

Should you make a real printing stuff or just a concept?
