Your best "Hello, world!" program in FreeBasic

[LooseCaboose]

if you're writing "Hello, World!" to begin with, well then...either you're a complete n00b...

Shouldn't that be:

Code:

print "H3ll0 w0r1d!!!!!11111one1!!!!"

then?

AOLer style ftw!

[yetifoot]

please what is 111111one11!!!!!

i never understand.

[NecrosIhsan]

AOLers like to hold down the !!!!!!!!!! but then sometimes, in their retardedism, let go of the shift key and do 111111111. The "oneoneone" thing is an insult to them...by writing out the 1s in longhand, it's not only continuing on the 111111 thing but it's also insulting their ability to use longhand in the first place SINC3 TH3Y ALWEZ TOK LIEK DIS ROFL LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111oneoneone

Stop polluting my thread with this crap. Here ya go - to get things back on track:

Code:

sub d() destructor : Print "rld!" : end sub

enum boolean : false = 0, true = not false : end enum

function Blind( westernSociety as byte ) as boolean
    dim as string obliviousTo => "o, wo"
    static as integer theDeclineOf => 0
    
    if( obliviousTo[theDeclineOf] = 0 ) then
        System() : end if

    if( obliviousTo[theDeclineOf] = westernSociety ) then
        theDeclineOf += 1
        return true
    end if
    return false
end function

sub Dumb( andDeaf as byte ) : Print Chr( andDeaf ) ;: end sub
    
function IsFoolishness( f as integer, l as integer ) as integer
    return cint( Rnd(1)*(l-f)+f )
end function

function main() as integer
    const AOLSucks as integer = true
    while( AOLSucks )
        dim as byte acceptance => IsFoolishness( 0,255 )
        if( Blind( acceptance ) ) then
            Dumb( acceptance ) : end if
    wend
end function

    end main()

sub c() constructor : Randomize( Timer() ) : Print "Hell" ;: end sub

    LOOP
NEXT

SLEEP

Palindromic:

Code:

DEFSTR A-Z'
MER = "Hello World"'
PRINT MER
REM TNIRP
'"dlroW olleH" = REM
'Z-A RTSFED

God I'm bored ;-)
