# 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.
## Setup
Go through the setup instructions for PL/SQL to get ready to code:

The necessary code should be contained at the end of the test package.
As an example, the test for the _hamming_ exercise would be run using
