LANSA

A blast from the past!

LANSA (Language for Automated Systems) is a fourth-generation programming language (4GL) that was popular in the 1980s and 1990s. Here’s how you can write “Hello World!” in LANSA:

PROGRAM HELLO_WORLD

  WRITE 'Hello World!'

END PROGRAM

Note: This code assumes you are using LANSA version 6 or earlier. In later versions, the syntax may have changed slightly.

Here’s a brief explanation of the code:

• PROGRAM is the keyword to define a program.
• HELLO_WORLD is the name of the program.
• The WRITE statement is used to print text to the console. In this case, we’re writing the string “Hello World!”.
• END PROGRAM is used to terminate the program.

To compile and run this code, you would need a LANSA development environment, such as LANSA Workbench or a compiler like LEX (LANSA Execution Environment).
