Hello World! I'm creating the first project in Alice. When you start Alice, the first thing you need to do is pick a blank slate or template for the sky and background. I'm going to scroll down and pick the swamp. Either double click or click and then click OK. After you pick the background, you will see something like this. There is a lot here, I will talk about the rest of this later in the course. Right now, we need to get someone in our scene to say "Hello World". Click the Setup Scene button that is in the lower right of the scene window. In the Scene view window, you will see several classes to select from. I want a witch, so I'm clicking the Biped Classes button. After I select the Biped Classes, I'm going to scroll across until I find the witch. I can either drag the witch into the scene, or I can double click to add her to the scene. A dialog window opens and I must give a name to the witch. I can either type in a name like "hilda" or accept the default. After adding the witch to the scene, click the Edit Code button to go back to the code view window. Click on the witch in the scene view window to make sure she is selected. When the witch is selected, you will see a list of procedures. These are all things that we can drag into the code window and will be part of our program. Select the procedure that says this.witch.say and drag it into myFirstMethod . The say procedure requires a string as an argument. A dialog window opens and you can select the default text "hello" or select Custom TextString to put in your own text. The Custom Text dialog window opens and you can type whatever text you want, and then click OK. The statement has now been added to the code. Click the Run button in the top right of the scene view window. When the program runs the witch says "Hello World!. Close the Run window. From the menu select File, Save, and name the project hello-world. You should now create this project on your own. I will be continuing with this project later, so it will be easier if you create the same project. You should also create a project completely your own to experiment.
