	"fmt"
	"os"

	os.Exit(5)
}

Output:

Hello World

Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt package to formatting related functions. Here, we also imported the "os" package to use the Exit() function.

In the main() function, we print the "Hello World" message and then terminate the program with a specified exit code using the Exit() function. Here we terminate the program with exit code 5.
