RedGage

!!! Hello World - Hello RedGage !!!

Many RedGagers know me because shortly after their arrival in the RG community I greeted them. Quite literally "greeted" them by proclaiming on their profile wall - "Greetings" - and welcomed them to the community. Greeting people is not limited to those folks that you come in contact with in-real-life, but extends to online, or cyber, life as well. In fact, the act of greeting has a long history ... well, long history within the short history ... of computing.

"Hello World" was the classic first lesson in learning the "C" programming language, which was the original language of the internet. The "Hello World" lesson came from AT&T's Bell Labs and generated code that would introduce the new student to both computer programming and to the world, or internet, by displaying the phrase "hello world".

Here is an example:

int main()
{
printf("hello, world");
return 0;
}

So, "GREETINGS" again my friends!

Have a great day. Cheers! MrBill (-;
