Before I jump into any new coding project or learning adventure, I always start with a small, simple tradition – writing a program that prints "Hello World". My journey into programming began with this very line of code in Java, and since then, I’ve kept the tradition alive.
The "Hello World" program is a perfect first step for anyone learning to code. It’s super simple, yet it holds a special place in the coding world. That’s why I decided to dedicate this post to the iconic “Hello World”.
The tradition of using "Hello, World!" as an introductory program started with the book The C Programming Language by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie. Published in 1978, the book introduced "Hello, World!" as the first example program in the B programming language, a predecessor to C.
What’s your first step you do when learning a new language or starting a new project?
