Hoo boy; we have all sorts of formatting options here!

20 hello world!

(Personally, I liked to spell it GO TO wherever it’d let me)

Languages that used line numbers didn't use semicolons to mark the end of a statement.
Also, this program would just say "goto 10" and then would popup an error because "hello world!" is not a statement.
But I'm just being silly.
Jumbling up that bit of rote code was the joke! But the semicolon isn’t supposed to end the line; it tells BASIC to suppress the newline after the
printstatement. Makes for a better endlessly scrolling text experience ;)
