## First Zig Program
Next, we use Zig to output "Hello World!"
## Example
```zig
const std = @import("std");
pub fn main() void {
std.debug.print("Hello, World!n", .{});
}
After running, it will display Hello, world! on the screen.

## Design Goals
Zig's design goal is to provide modern features while maintaining extremely low complexity.
Zig's design emphasizes safety, performance, and predictability, making it suitable for efficient, reliable, and cross-platform systems-level programming tasks.

## Zig Features
* **High Performance**: Code generated by the Zig compiler approaches C language performance while providing better memory safety and error handling.
* **Memory Safety**: Zig reduces memory safety issues through compile-time and runtime checks.
* **Conciseness**: Zig's syntax is concise and easy to learn and use.
* **Cross-Platform**: Zig supports multiple operating systems and hardware platforms, including
