Hello world!

I’m starting my blog with Hello, World! The most popular computer program –

Hello World! – PHP

<?php
echo "Hello world!";
?>

I found the following quote in the first edition (1978) of The C Programming Language.

The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it. The first program to write is the same for all languages: Print the words hello, world. – Brian W. Kernighan & Dennis M. Ritchie.

Kernighan also stated the following in this Biography,

“This is the basic hurdle; to leap over it, you have to be able to create the program text somewhere, compile it successfully, load it, run it, and find out where your output went. With these mechanical details mastered, everything else is comparatively easy.” “In hindsight, life is rather more complicated, but this is still a good first step, and “hello world” has taken on a life of its own as the standard first example for programming textbooks.” – Brian Kernighan.

Whenever I start learning a new language like HTML, PHP, JavaScript, or whatever the language – I will begin with this simple program to understand the basic structure of the code.

For every programmer, These magic words should be the first-ever program they typed although this is a toy program. Likewise, I’m starting my blog with these beautiful words!

Do you remember what was your first computer program? Share your memory about that!

Let us begin this!
