Is there a way to add burn function to deployed ERC20 token?

Hi @abcoathup
Thank you for your answer.

This is my contract:

        c = a * b;
        assert(c / a == b);
        return c;
    }

And I found this burn code from you on other thread:

        _mint(holder, 10000 * (10 ** uint256(decimals())));
    }

    function transfer(address to, uint256 amount) public returns (bool) {
        return super.transfer(to, _partialBurn(amount));
    }

    function transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 amount) public returns (bool) {

    }

    function _partialBurn(uint256 amount) internal returns (uint256) {
        uint256 burnAmount = _calculateBurnAmount(amount);

        if (burnAmount > 0) {
            _burn(msg.sender, burnAmount);
        }

        return amount.sub(burnAmount);

    function _calculateBurnAmount(uint256 amount) internal view returns (uint256) {
        uint256 burnAmount = 0;

        // burn amount calculations

            if (burnAmount > availableBurn) {
                burnAmount = availableBurn;
            }
        }

        return burnAmount;
    }
}

I can’t figure out how to implement your burn code into my contract code.
I guess I will try to see if I can find a developer in the community forum and reach a deal with him. Thanks for the tip.
