Program Chrestomathy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer programming, a program chrestomathy is a collection of similar programs written in various programming languages, for the purpose of demonstrating differences in syntax, semantics and idioms for each language. The best known of these is the ACM "Hello, World!" project.
The term is thought to have been first used by Eric S. Raymond in the Retrocomputing Museum web site. It is used by analogy to a linguistic chrestomathy.
