Hello World
A “Hello, world!” program is just a program that displays the phrase “Hello, world!”
It might seem easy to write a “Hello, world!” program, especially if you’re writing it in the Python programming language. For adults, it typically is easy. For kids, it’s often deceptively challenging. Kids don’t necessarily know how to open a program on their computer or what parentheses are. That’s why it’s important to you make sure that kids have those skills before you have them start working on a “Hello, world!” program.
