Good Stuff 4 U



Here are examples of "Hello World" programs written by people at
different stages of their "careers". 

High School/Jr.High
===================
10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD"
20 END  

First year in College
=====================
program Hello(input, output)
  begin
    writeln('Hello World')
  end.  

Senior year in College
======================
(defun hello
  (print
    (cons 'Hello (list 'World))))  

New professional
================
#include <stdio.h>
void main(void)
<
  char *message[] = <"Hello ", "World">;
  int i;

  for(i = 0; i < 2; ++i)
    printf("%s", message[i]);
  printf("\n");
>  

Seasoned professional
=====================
#include <iostream.h>
#include <string.h>

class string
<
private:
  int size;
  char *ptr;

public:
  string() : size(0), ptr(new char('\0')) <>

  string(const string &s) : size(s.size)
  <
    ptr = new char[size + 1];
    strcpy(ptr, s.ptr);
  >

  ~string()
  <
    delete [] ptr;
  >

  friend ostream &operator <<(ostream &, const string &);
  string &operator=(const char *);
>;

ostream &operator<<(ostream &stream, const string &s)
<
  return(stream << s.ptr);
>

string &string::operator=(const char *chrs)
<
  if (this != &chrs)
  <
    delete [] ptr;
    size = strlen(chrs);
    ptr = new char[size + 1];
    strcpy(ptr, chrs);
  >
  return(*this);
>

int main()
<
  string str;

  str = "Hello World";
  cout << str << endl;

  return(0);
