Hello World selector

This demo shows how to display a "hello world" message in various programming languages' syntax. To keep this simple, only the output command is shown (it takes more code to make a complete program in some of these languages), and only text-based solutions are given (no GUI or HTML construction logic is included). This page is a simple HTML file; the one you see after pressing the button below is generated by a Python CGI script which runs on the server. Pointers:

  • To see this page's HTML, use the 'View Source' command in your browser.
  • To view the Python CGI script on the server, click here.
  • To see an alternative version that generates this page dynamically, click here.
