Assignment 1a: Hello

Write a program that prints out the following:

Hello, World.

Save your program as hello_world.py

That’s it!

To do more (optional):

Optional assignments are fun, but not required.   They are designed so you might learn something from them, but they are definitely extra.

Some people make themselves a little ASCII art signature, like this:

Note that this only really works using a fixed width font, like Courier, where the characters end up in columns one under the other.  In a fixed width font, every character - even the empty space character - takes up the same amount of horizontal space.

Make a program that prints something like this out, with Python!   Feel free to look up “ASCII art” with Google and look at what other people have made.  Don’t just copy someone else’s work though.  Make your own!  If you do this, save it as art.py
