Should the beginner's program read "Hello, World"? [duplicate]

Solution 1:

Whilst according to my memory inserting the comma is technically correct, it is now rarely seen in everyday communications. I favour Hello World, therefore.

Solution 2:

Conventional orthography demands:

Hello, world!

but, given the context, it doesn't really matter what you type. In my experience, the following is common:

Hello world

Since a "Hello world" program terminates immediately after printing its message, I personally prefer:

Goodbye, world.
