    I haven’t looked at the code but I always assumed that println was a call to print with a new line added to the original input.
    Something like this:

    void print(String text) { ... }
    void println(String text) { this.print(text + '\n'); }

      That is pretty much what it does except it doesn’t hardcode \n but instead uses the proper line ending for the platform it’s running on.
