Back from a small break and doing some more programming trivia! Doing a bit of a different format this time as it was a bit hard to guess if you didnt know the names of a bunch of different programming languages by memory

There will be 4 options in the comments you can vote for. Just upvote the one that you think is the answer and ill post the answer + results ~ 12 hours after it started

For this question its just a simple hello world statement

AnswerThe answer is Raku! You could make an argument Perl also is valid although the statement doesn't work in isolation while in Raku it does

The answer was guessed by a bit less than half of everyone who responded

Lua was the second most popular option but for lua the function would be called print rather than say
