Kotlin Hello World

fun main(args: Array<String>) {

    println("Hello, World!")

}

Explanation:

 * fun main(args: Array<String>):

   * This line defines the main function, which is the entry point of the Kotlin program.

   * fun is the keyword for declaring a function.

   * main is the name of the function.

   * args: Array<String> is the parameter of the main function, which represents an array of command-line arguments passed to the program.

 * println("Hello, World!"):

   * This line prints the text "Hello, World!" to the console.

   * println() is a built-in function in Kotlin that prints the given string to the console and adds a newline character at the end.

To run this code:

 * Save the code: Save the code in a file named HelloWorld.kt.

 * Compile the code: Use the Kotlin compiler (kotlinc) to compile the code:

   kotlinc HelloWorld.kt -include-runtime -d HelloWorld.jar

 * Run the compiled code:

   java -jar HelloWorld.jar

This will output:

Hello, World!

This is the most basic example of a Kotlin program, demonstrating the fundamental syntax and how to print output to the console.
