You gotta start somewhere, no shame in learning!
Document.write(‘Hello World’);
Your basic start in becoming a programmer…. Soon it will be:
If(coffee = empty) {
Get up;
Fill coffee cup;
Pet cute cats;
Return prigramming;
}
you have to give some love to the ugly cats too! especially if you own them.
No such thing as an ugly cat, just different looking cute ones.
Programming is an art.
It’s just like where others see Picasso, I see a kids doodles. It’s all in the eye of the beholder.
Good old Hello World. I’m sure K&R had no idea what they had started.
Anyway, if all DPS meters just said “hello, world”, then maybe WoW would be a better place…
I’ve also gotta say that the facial expression in the third panel is priceless. Even after the FB sneak preview.
I don’t get it
Can someone explain the joke to me?
ROFL this is great and so completely true. Every single Lua guide or WoW addon book begins with a “Hello World” example for “your first addon!1!”
Oh Lisa, we’ve all been there.
Generally when you start a new program or project, after you do the wiring you have “Hello, World!” print to the console, log, or devices screen as the “default” text to make sure the foundation of the program is working.
Also, it’s the type of program we teach students at the very beginning of the class.
It’s the first step in computer programming I think. Like always learning to write your name first, you always learn to program something to pop-up on your screen and say “Hello World!” but I could be wrong, it’s been forever since I read computer programming for dummies – it was too complex for me XD
lol, awww so cute! i remember writing that program. i thought i was special too XD
You always remember your first “Hello World”
I still remember getting C++ to do it, and how hard that was for me to do. Followed by doing it in Python and being simply astonished at how simple it was.
Using my coding experience in html5(and all other web stuff) / java / C++ / Objective C and python I have been able to create some pretty amazing things, but back when I was just starting I loved being able to simply print “Hello World” on the screen.
Keep at it though and you really could make some pretty awesome things! Maybe even a DPS meter
I’m also a addon developer and I remember the “Hello World” times (altough my Hello World program said “COOKIEZ!”). February 2010 was a good time
Don’t worry Lisa! You’ll get there … eventually (took me about half a year to finish my first addon StrudelStore , so it can take a while)
public class HelloWorld
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println(“Hello World!”);
}
}
