This is the default introductory program to a new ProgrammingLanguage. It simply prints the text string "Hello World\n".
-HellWorld
is not really meant as a sample program, though. What you learn from creating a Hello World program is how to use the language tools: it's a first exercise in entering, compiling and running a program on a paticular system, and it might make you go find the documentation on the I/O library in some cases. In many very high level languages, it looks exactly the same.

Some examples of HelloWorld in different [ProgrammingLanguage]s:
