Question

Write a method called stripComments that accepts a Scanner representing an input file containing a Java program as its parameter, reads that file, and then prints the file's text with all comments removed.A comment is any text on a line from // to the end of the line, and any text between /* and */ characters. For example, consider the following
text:

import java.util.*;
/* My program
by Suzy Student */
public class Program {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, world!"); // a println
}
public static /* Hello there */ void foo() {
System.out.println("Goodbye!"); // comment here
} /* */
}
If the file contained this text, your program should output the following
text:

import java.util.*;
public class Program {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, world!");
}
public static void foo() {
System.out.println("Goodbye!");
}
}
