years ago Modified 5 months ago Viewed 84k times 120 'hello, world' is usually the first example for any
programming language. I've always wondered where this sentence came from and where was it first used. I've once been told that it was the first sentence ever to be displayed on a computer screen, but I've not been able to find any reference to this. So my question is:
Where does the practice to use 'hello, world' as the first example for computer languages originate from?
Where was it first used? Update
Although the answers are quite interesting, I should have noted that I had read the Wikipedia article. It does answer the question about the first use in literature, but does not answer when 'hello world' was first used.
So I
think that it is safe to conclude that it was not the first sentence ever to be displayed on a computer screen and that there is no record about when it was first used? language-agnostichistory Share Improve this question Follow edited Oct 3, 2023 at 8:48 community wiki

modified (newest first) Date created (oldest first) 111 Brian Kernighan actually wrote the first "hello, world" program as part of the documentation for the BCPL programming language developed by Martin Richards. BCPL was used while C was being developed at Bell Labs a few years before the publication of Kernighan and Ritchie's C book in 1972. As part of the research for a book I was writing about the Alice programming environment, I corresponded with both Prof. Kernighan at Princeton and Martin Richards at Cambridge (when I was teaching a seminar there in the 1990’s). They helped me to track the first documented use of code to print the message "Hello, World!” Brian Kernighan remembered writing the code for part of the I/O section of the BCPL manual.
Anime Adaptation: In April 2017, an
animated television series adaptation of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations came to life. Unlike the manga, the anime embarks on a prequel journey, unfolding the narrative before Boruto and his friends embark on their ninja endeavors in a later story arc. The anime’s ability to seamlessly introduce both new and familiar characters has garnered acclaim. Reception: Boruto’s manga series
achieved a remarkable milestone, shipping over a million copies by January 2017. Pierrot’s anime prequel also earned praise for shifting toward a more serious narrative focus, adding depth and intrigue to the series. Conclusion: Boruto: Naruto Next Generations perpetuates the extraordinary legacy of the Uzumaki family in the ninja world.
