Hello World in Karel

Based on the input, the target language specified in the variable karel is Python. Here is the translation of the provided code example and explanation into Markdown format suitable for Hugo:

Our first program will print the classic “hello world” message. Here’s the full source code.

def main():
    print("hello world")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

To run the program, save the code in a file named hello-world.py and use the Python interpreter to execute it.

$ python hello-world.py
hello world

Now that we can run and build basic Python programs, let’s learn more about the language.
