Hello World

The classical introductory exercise. Just say "Hello, World!".

"Hello, World!" is the traditional first program for beginning programming in a new language or environment.

The objectives are simple:

• Write a function that returns the string "Hello, World!".
• Run the test suite and make sure that it succeeds.
• Submit your solution and check it at the website.

If everything goes well, you will be ready to fetch your first real exercise.

Resources

Remember to check out the Perl 6 documentation and resources pages for information, tips, and examples if you get stuck.

Running the tests

There is a test script included with the exercise; a file with the extension .t. You can run the test script for the exercise by executing the command prove . --exec=perl6 in the exercise directory. You can also add the -v flag e.g. prove . --exec=perl6 -v to display all tests, including any optional tests marked as 'TODO'.
