Hello World !!

Hello world,

As a programmer, we must have heard that word before. If you never heard it before, then I doubt that you're a real programmer.

Yep, as we know, "Hello World" is a phrase that every programming tutorial uses for their first chapter.

package main

import fmt

func main() {
    fmt.Println("Hello World")
}

But, have you ever wondered why'd we even use that phrase ?

Since this is my first blog post in here, lemme also start with "Hello World" 😁

Well, turns out it came from a guide book for "C" Programming Language authored by "Brian Kernighan".

This is the code snippet

main( ) {
  extrn a, b, c;
  putchar(a); putchar(b); putchar(c); putchar('!*n');
}
a 'hell';
b 'o, w';
c 'orld';

But why though? Why not, "aloha" or smth?

Well, unfortunately, the man himself barely remembers why, when "Forbes India" interviewed him, he said

What I do remember is that I had seen a cartoon that showed an egg and a chick and the chick was saying, “Hello, world”

haha, yeah...i know right. But it is what it is. Alright, that's all I can say for my first post.

Hope you find something useful.

See ya,

آلى اللقاء
