MAD (programming Language) - "Hello, World" Example

"Hello, World" Example

The "hello, world" example program prints the string "Hello, world" to a terminal or screen display.

PRINT FORMAT HELLOW VECTOR VALUES HELLOW=$13h0Hello, world*$ END OF PROGRAM

The first character of the line is treated as logical carriage control, in this example the character zero which causes a double spaced line to be printed.

Or, if entering all of the keywords at your keypunch is too much work, you can use contractions and the compiler will expand them in the listing:

P'T HELLOW V'S HELLOW=$13h0Hello, world*$ E'M
