# 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. ### Project Structure Clojure exercises in exercism use [leiningen](http://leiningen.org/) to configure and run your code and use [leiningen standard directory structure](https://github.com/technomancy/leiningen/blob/master/doc/TUTORIAL.md#directory-layout). You will find a test file named `hello_world_test.clj` inside `test` directory. Write your code in `src/hello_world.clj`. It should use the namespace `hello-world` so that tests can pick it up. ### Running tests Run the tests using `lein test` command and make them pass: ``` $ lein test lein test hello-world-test Ran 1 tests containing 1 assertions. 0 failures, 0 errors. ``` Then submit the exercise using: ``` $ exercism submit src/hello_world.clj ``` For more detailed instructions and learning resources refer [exercism's clojure language page](http://exercism.io/languages/clojure). ## Source This is an exercise to introduce users to using Exercism [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_world!%22_program](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_world!%22_program) ## Submitting Incomplete Solutions It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
