How to Triage an Office Floor

Sometimes explaining things to my husband this way helps.

onError call spouse
sub TriagePaper(currentPaper)

While floor.containspaper = true
if currentPaper.category = trash
PlaceinPile(trash,currentPaper)

elseif currentPaper.category = urgent
PlaceinPile(urgent,currentPaper)

elseif currentPaper.category = money
dance()

else
PlaceinPile(tobesorted,currentPaper)

end if

end while

OK, blockquotes were not the right choice for indenting - suggestions, anyone?

Anonymous said...: I still think you leave a lot out...like does the putInPile method also know about the floor? if so, how?

What instantiates the "currentPaper" object?
