One of the first things a programmer learns to write is a sequence which prints on the screen the message – “Hello World!”. And every time a new programming language is invented, it is de rigeur that it should be able to proclaim this anthem using the most elegant code possible. The largest collection of Hello World programs can be found at the website of the Association of Computing Machinery ‘Hello World’ Project , where over 200 examples are listed in all their complexity. The simplest is probably in Basic:
10 print "Hello World!"
20 goto 10
