Welcome to your initiation into the exciting world of Swift programming! In this lesson, we will introduce you to the basics of coding in Swift by crafting your first program. This milestone is fundamental because it establishes the foundation for all prospective programming endeavors. Just like NASA's inaugural steps on the Moon, everything begins with this simple yet essential groundwork.
By the end of this lesson, you'll know how to:
Swift
program.print
function.Beginning with a "Hello, Universe!" program is a long-standing entry point for novices. It provides an uncomplicated method to comprehend the core elements of the language and to immediately see the outcomes of your code in action.
Learning to author your first Swift program is akin to learning how to pen your name before scripting a novel. It’s a fundamental skill that will enhance your confidence and equip you for more intricate coding exercises. By mastering this straightforward program, you'll acquire the elementary skills necessary to advance in your Swift journey.
