I wrote my largest and most complex and silly hello world program this week. I was testing an encrypting spool/batch-thing library which uses RSA.
The program generated a 2K RSA key, created a random key, encrypted it under RSA, took the string hello world and encrypted it symmetrically with that number, wrote those two things to a spool directory, read them in again, recovered the random number decrypted hello world and printed it out.
Overall visible effect: 20 minutes of nothing followed by "hello, world!".
