you are a newbie to programming in general because of that last
question you asked. Things in Python are easier than in almost any
other programming language. Here are three Hello World programs:
Counterexamples for quite short "greetings" in other programming languages:
(Free)BASIC::
Print "Hello World!"
freebasic is another language i'd point out to a newbie, even if it is
not as multiplatform as python if. it has a decent community and a large
amount of libraries. it doesn't let you explore functional or, worse,
object oriented programming nor you can write server side programs with it.
The others are examples of easy "hello world" languages, but, passed
that, i think they don't have the same capabilities of python on terms
of support, kind of programs you can write and even overall complexity
(haskell forces you to functional programming, io is really a minor
language, ocalm forces you to di OOP and, if writing hello world is
simple, on the other hand ir may have lines of code that read like:
| [] -> []
and that negatively compesate the easy way you can write "hello world"
OCaml::
print_string "Hello World!" ;;
Io::
"Hello World!" linePrint
Haskell::
main = putStrLn "Hello World!"
