From the GNU joke pages:
How the way people code the basic "Hello World" varies depending on their age and job:

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))))

#include <stdio.h>

void main(void)
{
char *message[] = {"Hello ", "World"};
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 2; ++i)
printf("%s", message);
printf("\n");
}

{

strcpy(ptr, s.ptr);
}
~string()
{
delete [] ptr;
}
friend ostream &operator <<(ostream &, const string &);
string &operator=(const char *);
};
ostream &operator<<(ostream &stream, const string &s)

{
if (this != &chrs)
{
delete [] ptr;
size = strlen(chrs);
ptr = new char;
strcpy(ptr, chrs);
}
return(*this);
}
int main()
{
string str;
str = "Hello World";
cout << str << endl;
return(0);
