Sorry this is remotely tangentially related, but one of my favorite websites to peruse when bored is this hello world collection http://helloworldcollection.de/ You can really get a feel of a language's personality and style from its 'hello world'

Interesting. While this website is well-promoted at Wikipedia "Hello World" articles, let me link

* https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Computer_Programming/Hello_wor...

* http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Hello_world

as two canonical example sites which also try to collect "Hello worlds" from as many programming languages as possible :-)

It lists esoteric languages like Brainfuck, LOLCODE and Shakespeare for example, but misses on including languages like Hello and Hello++, which were made specifically for Hello World. Weird.

Looks like they accept contributions:

> To contribute, send your program to [e-mail].

The caveat is that they say they accept "real" languages only, with a link to the wikipedia page on Turing Completeness. I don't know anything about Hello/Hello++ and it's quite hard to search for without turning up dozens of "how to say Hello in N languages" pages, so I've no idea if it clears this bar.

There are a lot. My favorite in my short look: “ Hello World for standard pocket calculators (7-segment display). Type in and turn calculator upside down.
