Yes, and all programs that people write typically look like the hello world
program.
Look at some real-world programs for a comparison, for example the Python
Cookbook: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/

- be productive in programming, rather than hassling with declaring all kind of
  stuff first.

- skip compile step.

On the other hand, if you typically write hello world programs, don't bother.
You won't see the difference.
