23. Hello World Program
Let’s now go through a basic hello world program in the following
languages:
• Java
• HTML
• Python
This is just to give you a glimpse of these programming languages

24. Hello World Program Java
class A {
public static void main() {
System.out.println(‘Hello World’);
}
}
• Java works on the concept of Classes and
objects
• A java program always has a main()
method
• System.out.println() prints the text on the
screen

25. Hello World Program HTML
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World</p>
</body>
</html>
• HTML is used in web development
• It contains the contents of a webpage
• The things added inside <body> tag are
visible on the webpage
• <p> tag is for paragraph

26. Hello World Program Python
print(‘Hello World’)
• Python is an OOP language
• Python is a much modern language when
compared to some other popular language
• So, it is simpler and quicker than Java
