Hello World

By law (okay, convention), the first thing you ever code should be a program that prints out the phrase Hello, World!. This used to be a fairly major project that would take hours:

Exercise

>>> print('Hello, World!')
Hello, World!

Note

• The quotation mark is next to the enter key

• You have to be precise in how you type

• The parentheses (round bracket) characters () send a message to the print function to ask it to process the things inside the parentheses

• Give it a try now
