    // Greetings, intrepid explorer, to the magnum opus of verbosity – the exhaustive elucidation
    // of the venerable "Hello, World!" program in the illustrious realm of C++.
    
    // Our inaugural act involves the summoning of external powers through the sacred rite of inclusion.
    // The venerable  library is invoked, opening the gateway to input and output sorcery.
    #include 
    
    // Brace yourself, noble adventurer, for the initiation of our journey transpires within the sanctum
    // of the 'main' function – the veritable heart and soul of our C++ odyssey.
    int main() {
        // Let us forge a pact with the realm of 'std', alleviating the syntactic tribulations
        // through the divine power of the 'using' declaration. Behold the namespace, a sanctuary
        // where the gods of C++ convene, rendering our code free from the shackles of verbosity.
        using namespace std;
    
        // As we stand on the precipice of expression, the 'cout' oracle emerges.
        // This venerable entity, an emissary of the standard output stream, awaits our command.
        // With the '<<' conjuration, we channel the essence of our proclamation, "Hello, World!",
        // and cast it into the void of the console, where it shall resonate for eternity.
        cout << "Hello, World!" << endl;
    
        // The denouement approaches, where our protagonist, the 'main' function,
        // bestows upon the cosmic arbiter – the operating system – a token of acknowledgment.
        // The triumphant 'return 0' is a symphony of numerical reverence, echoing
        // the harmony of a flawless performance in the grand opera of computational artistry.

      Ah yes, #include\n. The magical include that simply copy-pastes the entirety of libc’s headers into your source file.
