Hello world program is the most basic program in in any programming language. It's mostly the first program every beginner makes. And it gives one an idea of how complex or simple it is.
In this post we will be telling you how to write your first "hello world" program in Python. We will also include the steps on how to download the IDE.
We will be writing the "Hello World" program in the following languages:
Python
PYTHON
Python is personally my favorite programming language as it is a very powerful one and isn't very hard either. If you ask me, I would recommend starting off with python as your first language as it is truly very powerful and not very hard to learn. Python is used in stuff like data-management, hacking, machine learning and much, much more! There's just so much stuff you can do with python, and it has a pretty good demand in the market.
Python is fairly easy to setup as well. In this post we're mainly focusing Windows users. In order to get started all you need to do is head to Python's main site and download the latest version!

After you've downloaded Python and gone through the wizard, you should have a new application by the name of "idle."
This is Python's built-in IDE. It's not a very good one but gets the job the done!
You can go ahead and open idle by clicking the windows button and typing idle.
Once you click on it you should see a windows pop up.

All you have to do now in order to make your hello world program running is just type
" print ('Hello World') "
And then press enter.
And you will see Hello World printed down!
That's it! You have made your very basic "hello world" program.
If you really are interested in learning Python more, we recommend you to check out Automate the Boring Stuff by Al Swegart. It's an amazing book that you can read for free!
