Hello World!

Hello World! As per the traditions of computer programming this blog post is a sanity check to see if I have configured the entire thing properly.

The Origin of Hello World

Brian Kernighan is widely credited for putting the words ‘hello’ and ‘world’ together. The following code can be found in his book - A Tutorial Introduction to the Programming Language B, published in 1973.

main( ) {
  extrn a, b, c;
  putchar(a); putchar(b); putchar(c); putchar('!*n');
}
a 'hell';
b 'o, w';
c 'orld';

And the rest, as they say, is history. Cheers!
