A "hello world" program is a computer program that simply prints out "Hello, world!" on a display device. It is used in many introductory tutorials for teaching a programming language and many students use it as their first programming experience in a language.
Such a program is typically one of the simpler programs possible in a computer language. Some are surprisingly complex, especially in some graphical user interface (GUI) contexts. Some others are surprisingly simple, especially those which rely heavily on a particular command line interpreter ("shell") to perform the actual output. In many embedded systems, the text may be sent to a one or two-line LCD display (and in yet other systems, a simple LED being turned on may substitute for "Hello world!").
A "hello world" program can be a useful sanity test to make sure that a language's compiler, development environment, and run-time environment are correctly installed. Configuring a complete programming toolchain from scratch to the point where even trivial programs can be compiled and run may involve substantial amounts of work. For this reason, a simple program is used first when testing a new tool chain.
While small test programs existed since the development of programmable computers, the tradition of using the phrase "Hello, world!" as the test message was influenced by an example program in the book The C Programming Language, by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie. The example program from that book prints "hello, world" (i.e., no capital letters, no exclamation sign; those have entered the tradition later). However, the first known instance of the usage of "Hello world!" is in A Tutorial Introduction to the Language B, by Brian Kernighan. [1]
A collection of "hello world" programs written in various computer languages can serve as a very simple "Rosetta Stone" to assist in learning and comparing the languages. Keep in mind, however, that unless assembly language or similar very low-level (hardware-near) languages are involved, not much "computing" in the way of actual calculation, is usually exhibited.
Here are some examples in different languages:
Text user interface (TUI) (aka console, line-oriented)
WRITE "Hello World"
with Ada.Text_Io; use Ada.Text_Io;
procedure Hello is
begin
Put_Line ("Hello, world!");
end Hello;
PROC main()
WriteF('Hello, World!')
ENDPROC

JavaScript (aka ECMAScript) and JScript
- JavaScript is a client-side scripting language used in HTML files. The following code can be placed in any HTML file.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
function helloWorld()
{
alert("Hello, world!");
}
//--></script>
<a href="#" onclick="helloWorld()">Hello World Example</a>
- An easier method uses JavaScript implicitly, calling the reserved alert function. Cut and paste the following line inside the <BODY> .... </BODY> HTML tags.
<a href="#" onclick="alert('Hello, world!')">Hello World Example</a>
- An even easier method involves using popular browsers' support for the virtual 'javascript' protocol to execute JavaScript code. Enter the following as an Internet address (usually by pasting into the address box):
javascript:alert('Hello, world!')
