From Scott Rosenberg’s excellent new book, Dreaming in Code:
“Hello World� looks more forbidding in Java, one of the workhorse programming languages in today’s business world:
class HelloWorld { public static void main (String args[]){ System.out.println("Hello World!"); } }Public static void: gazillions of chunks of program code written in Java include that cryptic sequence. The words carry specific technical meaning. But I’ve always heard them as a bit of machine poetry, evoking the desolate limbo where software projects that begin with high spirits too often end up.
