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.
Refer to the Installing Elm page for information about installing elm.
The code you have to write is located inside the src/
directory of the exercise.
Elm automatically installs packages dependencies the first time you run the tests
so we can start by running the tests from the exercise directory with:
$ elm-test
To automatically run tests again when you save changes:
$ elm-test --watch
As you work your way through the tests suite in the file tests/Tests.elm
,
be sure to remove the skip <|
calls from each test until you get them all passing!
This is an exercise to introduce users to using Exercism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_world!%22_program
It is possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
