A short story.
Every programmer’s journey begins with a simple step — printing “Hello World.”
Here’s how it looks in C, C++, Java, Python, NodeJS, and Go.
So tell me, which one feels like your favourite?
1. C Language
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello World\n");
return 0;
}
2. C++ Language
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Hello World" << endl;
return 0;
}
3. Java Language
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}
4. Python Language
print("Hello World")
5. Node.js (JavaScript)
console.log("Hello World");
6. Go Language
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello World")
}
In the same way that each language has its own way of saying “Hello World,” religions too offer different ways to help us discover ourselves.
They’re all good, though not identical.
That’s the picture I painted for Hippo when he asked me about religion.
