The following is a list of Hello, world! programs.
Hello, world! programs make the text "Hello, world!" appear on a computer screen. It is usually the first program encountered when learning a programming language. Otherwise, it's a basic sanity check for an installation of a new programming language. If "Hello World" won't run, one must not try and develop complex programs before fixing the issues with the installation.

4DOS batch
It should be noted that the 4DOS/4NT batch language is a superset of the MS-DOS batch language.
Ingres 4GL

ABAP/4 - SAP AG
REPORT ZHELLO.START-OF-SELECTION. WRITE 'Hello, world!'.
ABAP OBJECTS (NETWEAVER 7) - SAP AG
The example below makes use of the singleton pattern and outputs the text in a message box instead of a classic list output.

WRITE "Hello, world!"
ActionScript
ActionScript 1.0 and 2.0
This will output to the output window only, which an end user would not see.
This version will be visible to the end user.
var helloWorld:TextField = this.createTextField( "helloWorld", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 1, 1, 100, 20 );helloWorld.text = "Hello, world!";
ActionScript 3
package{ public class HelloWorld { public function HelloWorld() { trace("Hello, world!"); } }}
Ada
with Ada.Text_IO; procedure Hello isbegin Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Hello, world!");end Hello;
ALGOL 68
The ALGOL 68 standard requires that reserved-words, types and operators are in a different typeface. Hence programs are typically published in either bold or an underline typeface, e.g.:
begin printf($"Hello, world!"l$)end
In the popular upper-case stropping convention for bold words:
BEGIN printf($"Hello, world!"l$)END
or using a wikitext like quote stropping, this is especially suitable on computers with only 6 bits per character (hence only have UPPERCASE):
'BEGIN' PRINTF($"HELLO, WORLD!"L$)'END'
or minimally using the "brief symbol" form of begin and end.
( printf($"Hello, world!"l$) )
AmigaE
PROC main() WriteF('Hello, world!');ENDPROC
AMX NetLinx
This program sends the message out via the Diagnostics Interface after start-up.
program_name = 'Hello'define_startsend_string 0,'Hello World!'
ANSI C
#include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("Hello, World!\n"); return 0;}
ANSI Common Lisp
(format t "Hello, World!~%")
ANT
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE project><project> <target name="helloworld"> <echo message="Hello, World!" /> </target></project>
APL
- The Del on the first line begins function definition for the program named HWΔPGM. It is a niladic function (no parameters, as opposed to monadic or dyadic) and it will return an explicit result which allows other functions or APL primitives to use the returned value as input.
- The line labeled 1 assigns the text vector 'Hello, world!!' to the variable R
- The last line is another Del which ends the function definition.
When the function is executed by typing its name the APL interpreter assigns the text vector to the variable R, but since we have not used this value in another function, primitive, or assignment statement the interpreter returns it to the terminal, thus displaying the words on the next line below the function invocation.
The session would look like this
HWΔPGMHello, world!!
While not a program, if you simply supplied the text vector to the interpreter but did not assign it to a variable it would return it to the terminal as output. Note that user input is automatically indented 6 spaces by the interpreter while results are displayed at the beginning of a new line.
'Hello, world!'Hello, world!!
AppleScript
or:
display dialog "Hello, world!"
ASP
<% Response.Write("Hello, world!") %>
- or simply:
ASP.NET
// in the page behind using C#protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e){ Response.Write("Hello, world!");}
' in the page behind using VB.NETProtected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Response.Write("Hello, world!")End Sub

BASIC
General
The following example works for any ANSI/ISO-compliant BASIC implementation, as well as most implementations built into or distributed with microcomputers in the 1970s and 1980s (usually some variant of Microsoft BASIC):
10 PRINT "Hello, world!"20 END
Note that the "END" statement is optional in many implementations of BASIC.
Some implementations could also execute instructions in an immediate mode when line numbers are omitted. The following examples work without requiring a RUN instruction.
Later implementations of BASIC allowed greater support for structured programming and did not require line numbers for source code. The following example works when RUN for the vast majority of modern BASICs.
Again, the "END" statement is optional in many BASICs.
BlitzBasic
Print "Hello, world!"WaitKey
DarkBASIC
or
TEXT 0,0,"Hello, world!"WAIT KEY
Note: In the "classic" Dark Basic the WAIT KEY command is optional as the console goes up when the program has finished.
FreeBasic
PRINT "Hello World"SLEEPEND
or
PRINT "Hello World"
or
? "Hello World"
or
'without a newline? "Hello World";
GW-BASIC
10 PRINT "Hello, World!"20 END
Liberty BASIC
To write to the main window:
Or drawn in a graphics window:
nomainwinOPEN "Hello, world!" FOR graphics AS #mainPRINT #main, "place 50 50"PRINT #main, "\Hello, world!"PRINT #main, "flush"WAIT
Microsoft Small Basic
TextWindow.WriteLine("Hello, world!")
PBASIC
DEBUG "Hello, world!", CR
or, the typical microcontroller Hello, world! program equivalent with the only output device present being a light-emitting diode (LED) (in this case attached to the seventh output pin):
DO HIGH 7 'Make the 7th pin go high (turn the LED on) PAUSE 500 'Sleep for half a second LOW 7 ' Make the 7th pin go low (turn the LED off) PAUSE 500 'Sleep for half a second LOOP END
StarOffice/OpenOffice Basic

TI-BASIC
On TI calculators of the TI-80 through TI-86 range:
:Disp "Hello, world! (note the optional ending quotes):Output(X,Y,"Hello, world! (note the optional ending parenthesis):Text(X,Y,"Hello, world! (writes to the graph rather than home screen):Text(-1,X,Y,"Hello, world! (only on the 83+ and higher, provides larger text, home screen size):"Hello, world! (last line of program only)
Note: "!" character is not on the keypad. It can be accessed from "Catalog" or the "Probability" menu (as factorial notation).

Visual Basic
Private Sub Form_Load() MsgBox "Hello, world"End Sub
Alternatively, copy this into a New Form:

PICK/BASIC, DATA/BASIC, MV/BASIC
In addition to the ANSI syntax at the head of this article, most Pick operating system flavors of Dartmouth BASIC support extended syntax allowing cursor placement and other terminfo type functions for VDT's
X, Y positioning (colon ":" is the concatenation instruction):
PRINT @(34,12) : "Hello, world!"
Will display the string "Hello, world!" roughly centered in a 80X24 CRT.
Other functions:
PRINT @(-1) : @(34,12) : "Hello, world!"
Will clear the screen before displaying the string "Hello, world!" roughly centered in a 80X24 CRT.
Syntax variants:
CRT "Hello, world!"
Supporting the "@" functions above, the CRT statement ignores previous PRINTER statements and always sends output to the screen.
Some Pick operating system environments such as OpenQM support the DISPLAY variant of PRINT. This variant in addition to the "@" functions maintains pagination based upon the settings of the TERM variable:
DISPLAY "Hello, world!"

JavaFX Script
JavaFX Script was a scripting language formerly called F3 for Form Follows Function. It was discontinued by Oracle in 2010.
Frame { title: "Hello World JavaFX" width: 200 content: Label { text: "Hello World" } visible: true}
This program can also be written in this way:
var win = new Frame();win.title = "Hello World JavaFX";win.width = 200;var label = new Label();label.text = "Hello World";win.content = label;win.visible = true;
A simple console output version would be:
import java.lang.System;System.out.println(" Hello World");
Or even simpler (with a built-in function):
println("Hello World");
JavaScript
JavaScript does not have native (built in) input or output routines. Instead it relies on the facilities provided by its host environment.

Traditional Syntax
With this syntax, a constant has to be used because the message must be placed in positions 12 to 25, between apostrophes.

Message Window
Using the internal message window, a simple Hello, world! program can be rendered thus:
mwin("Hello, world!")wait()
On Screen Text
An additional way to render text is by using the built in text() function.

The simplest way to achieve this is with the built in message function that is similar to the windows messageBox().
PROGRAM MAP END CODE MESSAGE('Hello, world!!','Clarion') RETURN
