This program would output "Hello, world!  Hello, world!  HHQ+HQ++  Hello, world!  HHQ+HQ++" as well as incrementing the accumulator three times.

It is claimed that all useful programs written in HQ9+ run over twice as fast as the same programs written in any other language. Since no useful programs can be written in HQ9+, this is [[vacuous truth|vacuously true]].  The only programs in HQ9+ that can reasonably be called "useful" are ones that print out messages in 
[[ASCII]] text.  To do this, a programmer simply has to write the ASCII text message within the source code by using the accumulator incrementor, and place a Q anywhere in the program to print the source code when compiled.  This is a sample code that prints the message "HI" in large letters:<br>
<code>q+&nbsp;&nbsp;++&nbsp;&nbsp;++++++<br>
++&nbsp;&nbsp;++&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;++&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>
