Ken2k7 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I meant the literal text "hello world" not the program. Why no "hello earth" or something else? Same concept, just different output.

premiso Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I meant the literal text "hello world" not the program. Why no "hello earth" or something else? Same concept, just different output. The programmer who thought it up decided he wanted to say hello to the world, and not the earth. And since the phrase was so "catchy" it just stuck through out programming history as the basic item to do to show how a program can output data. The gist, someone thought it up and implemented it and it just stuck over time cause people liked it.

Daniel0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I don't like the PHP hello world script that much. It's too short. Take a look at the C hello world program for instance: #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { printf("Hello World"); } There are a lot of more things you can talk about: The preprocessor and its directives, header files, datatypes (int, char, etc.), functions, function signatures, library functions, pointers, strings (as arrays of chars), arrays as pointers, command line arguments.

I don't think the point of, "Hello World" is to teach people about programming but to just get something basic up and running.

Vermillion Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I remember the days when I was like "what's a hello world? Why Hello world?"... Good, good times, Wikipedia has a rocket-science explanation about it. I think it should be used just to help people set their environments for programming, but they are more used as examples now...
