# Hello World
|
|
|
|
The classical introductory exercise. Just say "Hello, World!".
|
|
|
|
["Hello, World!"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_world!%22_program) 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.
|
|

|
## Testing
|
|

### When Questions Come Up
|
|
We monitor the [Pascal-Delphi](https://gitter.im/exercism/Pascal-Delphi) support room on [gitter.im](https://gitter.im) to help you with any questions that might arise.

|
|
|
### Submitting Exercises
|
|
|
|
Note that, when trying to submit an exercise, make sure the exercise file you're submitting is in the `exercism/delphi/<exerciseName>` directory.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you're submitting `ubob.pas` for the Bob exercise, the submit command would be something like `exercism submit <path_to_exercism_dir>/delphi/bob/ubob.pas`.
