# 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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Running the tests
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run the tests run the command `go test` from within the exercise directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the test suite contains benchmarks, you can run these with the `--bench` and `--benchmem`
|
||
|
|
flags:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
go test -v --bench . --benchmem
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Keep in mind that each reviewer will run benchmarks on a different machine, with
|
||
|
|
different specs, so the results from these benchmark tests may vary.
