Groovy is a dynamic scripting language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and is often used for scripting tasks and automation. Here’s a simple “Hello, World!” example in Groovy:

In this script:

1. We declare a variable named greeting and assign it the string “Hello, World!”.
2. We use the println statement to print the value of the greeting variable to the console.

To run this Groovy script, follow these steps:

1. Install Groovy: If you don’t have Groovy installed, you can download it from the official Groovy website (https://groovy-lang.org/download.html) and follow the installation instructions for your platform.

2. Save the script: Create a file with a .groovy extension (e.g., hello.groovy) and paste the script into it.

3. Run the script: Open a terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory where you saved the script, and run it using the groovy command:

   bashCopy code

   groovy hello.groovy

You should see “Hello, World!” printed to the console.

Of course, Groovy is a versatile language with many features beyond this simple example. It has a concise syntax, supports dynamic typing, and provides a wide range of built-in functions and libraries for various tasks. You can use Groovy for scripting, web development, automation, and more.
