Hello world/Newline omission

Hello world/Newline omission
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Some languages automatically insert a newline after outputting a string, unless measures are taken to prevent its output.

Task

Display the string   Goodbye, World!   without a trailing newline.

Ada

This example will implicitly include a final, implementation defined, terminator (usually a linefeed) if the output is a file (RM A.10.7-8) such as stdout on UNIX systems.

 
with Ada.Text_IO;
 
procedure Goodbye_World is
begin
   Ada.Text_IO.Put("Goodbye, World!");
end Goodbye_World;
 

Using Ada.Text_IO.Text_Streams instead allows us to control the termination.

BaCon

BaCon supports BASIC PRINT ending with trailing semicolon to prevent a newline and also supports a FORMAT clause that uses printf specifications and special character escapes (with no \n, there is no newline).

PRINT "Goodbye, World!";
PRINT "Goodbye, World!" FORMAT "%s"

Applesoft BASIC

PRINT "GOODBYE, WORLD!";

beeswax prints everything without appending a newline character. beeswax has an instruction to explicitely print a newline character: N.

In Befunge, a newline has to be explicitly output when required, so you can just not include one if it's not wanted.

Brainf***

One option was to copy the code from the regular Hello World version and omit the last period, but one of the nicer things about the language is that no matter how simple your program is, if it's more than a few characters long, it's probably unique. So here's yet another version of Goodbye, World in Brainf***.

>+++++[>++++>+>+>++++>>+++<<<+<+<++[>++>+++>+++>++++>+>+[<]>>-]<-]>>

C

In C, we do not get a newline unless we embed one:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  (void) printf("Goodbye, World!");    /* No automatic newline */
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

However ISO C leaves it up to implementations to define whether or not the last line of a text stream requires a new-line. This means that the C can be targetted to environments where this task is impossible to implement, at least with a direct text stream manipulation like this.

C#

Fortran

program bye
  write (*,'(a)',advance='no') 'Goodbye, World!'
end program bye

The "advance" facility was introduced with F90, as was the ability to specify format instructions (the '(A)' part) without a separate FORMAT statement. Earlier, there was a common extension:

      WRITE (6,1) "Goodbye, World!"
    1 FORMAT (A,$)
      END

In this, the FORMAT instruction is to accept alphabetic text (the A) from the WRITE statement, followed by the special $ item (of no mnemonic form) which signified that there was not to be any new line action at the end of the output. This sort of thing is useful when writing a prompt to the screen so that the input of the response appears on the same screen line. The text could also have been incorporated into the FORMAT statement, which would be useful if there were many WRITE statements scattered about that were to send forth the same text.

These facilities only became of interest when, instead of card decks and lineprinters, I/O involved a keyboard and screen with both input and output appearing on the same screen. Thus, in earlier Fortran usage, the issue would not arise for output to a lineprinter, because it was already the case: a line written to the lineprinter was not followed by a end-of-line/start-new-line sort of action by the lineprinter. It stayed put on the line just written. It was the following output to the lineprinter that would state "advance one" (or two, or, no) lines at the start of its output. This was the "carriage control character", and a 1 signified "skip to top-of-form" which is to say, start a new page.

In other words, the Fortran approach for output was <carriage control><output text> rather than the <output text><carriage control> sequence, that now has to be suppressed by the "advance = 'no'" facility.

J

On a linux system, you can use 1!:3 because stdout is a file:

   'Goodbye, World!' 1!:3 <'/proc/self/fd/1'
Goodbye, World!   

However, J works in environments other than Linux, so... Solution:prompt from the misc package.

Example:

   load 'general/misc/prompt'
   prompt 'Goodbye, World!'
Goodbye, World!

Notes: J programs are normally run from a REPL, or session manager, which comes in several flavors. The traditional commandline-based terminal (jconsole), one of several desktop applications (jqt for the current version of J, jgtk and jwd for older but still supported versions), a web-based frontend (jhs), and various mobile apps (J for iOS, Android).

The specific session manager being used changes the context and therefore answer to this task. For example, when using J from a browser (including mobile browsers) newlines are omitted by default. Further, J provides strong tools for coalescing results and manipulating them prior to output, so newline elimination would typically happen before output rather than after.

With that said, prompt handles the most common cases (using binary output for jconsole, so no newline is appended; adjusting the REPL prompt in the desktop apps to to elide the newline which is normally included by default, etc).

For truly automated processes, you'd almost always want this kind of functionality (omitting the newline when printing) in a file- or stream-oriented application. For those cases, the simple text 1!:3 file will append the text to the referenced file verbatim, without inserting any extra newlines.

So, if a J programmer were asked to solve this task, the right approach would be to ask why that is needed, and then craft a solution appropriate to that situation.

jq

The "-j" command-line option suppresses the newline that would otherwise be printed, e.g. if "$" is the command-line prompt:

$ jq -n -j '"Goodbye, World!"'
Goodbye, World!$ 

The trailing "$" is the command-line prompt.

Similarly:

$ echo '"Goodbye, World!"' | jq -j 
Goodbye, World!$

To make it clearer, we can define an ML/I skip to delete itself and an immediately following newline.

N/t/roff

By default, /.ROFF/ replaces single non-consecutive newline characters with spaces, but considers two consecutive newline characters as a paragraph separator and omits 2-newline's worth of spaces. The former behaviour is the same as in HTML and Rosettacode's Wiki syntax: text on non-consecutive single newlines get wrapped on the same line above it. In /.ROFF/, this is the default behaviour if and only if the typesetter is processing the input in fill mode (.fi); though, by default, the typesetter processes in this mode anyway!

Because /.ROFF/ is a document formatting language, most text input is expected to be text input which will get output on paper, so there is usually no need to run a special procedure or routine to output text.

TXR

Possible using access to standard output stream via TXR Lisp:

Goodbye, world!$

UNIX Shell

The echo command is not portable, and echo -n is not guaranteed to prevent a newline from occuring. With the original Bourne Shell, echo -n "Goodbye, World!" prints -n Goodbye, World! with a newline. So use a printf instead.

Works with: Bourne Shell

printf "Goodbye, World!"          # This works. There is no newline.
printf %s "-hyphens and % signs"  # Use %s with arbitrary strings.

Unfortunately, older systems where you have to rely on vanilla Bourne shell may not have a printf command, either. It's possible that there is no command available to complete the task, but only on very old systems. For the rest, one of these two should work:

echo -n 'Goodbye, World!'

or

echo 'Goodbye, World!\c'

The print command, from the Korn Shell, would work well, but most shells have no print command. (With pdksh, print is slightly faster than printf because print runs a built-in command, but printf forks an external command. With ksh93 and zsh, print and printf are both built-in commands.)

Works with: ksh93

Works with: pdksh

Works with: zsh

C Shell does support echo -n and omits the newline.
