Besides being a homework candidate question, what useful
application does this suit?

During an interview it could be a useful way to see of the candidate has
been lurking on comp.lang.c for the passed year or at least read the
archives. 8^)
I've never concerned myself with this kind of issue in all
my 30 years of programming.
Only 21 years but I agree. I do occasionally have to understand some
obfuscated code however. I don't write obfuscated code (at least not for
professional programming) but I have had to re-write obfuscated code.

Yes, you go to http://www.google.ca/grphp and search for
"group:comp.lan g.c hello world no semicolon".

A very simple solution is to write a BASIC program and run it:

10 PRINT "hello,worl d"
20 END

Even simpler, use a word processor, type "hello,worl d", then use the
Print menu.

But then it would be off-topic for comp.lang.c. 8^)

#include<stdio. h>

Whilst this line, of itself, does not contain a semicolon, it's actions
effectively insert many other lines (some of which /may/ contain semicolons)
into the source code. This is line technically satisfies the OPs requirement,
but operationally may not.

If all that is needed is for the actual C source file not to contain
semicolons, all we need to do is:

/* file: program.c */
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
}

/* file: main.c */
#include "program.c"

And then compile main.c.

These requirements are easily satisfied with a one-line C translation
unit:

#error "hello,worl d"

since they don't specify that "hello,worl d" (or "hello , wolrd", or
other variations thereof) be printed during program execution, or
indeed that there be a program (written by the user to satisfy the
assignment) at all.

Since there is no requriement for even a program to be written:

(from the command line)
echo "hello, world"

Ah, but that's not topical on c.l.c, unlike my proposal. I'm treating
group topicality as an additional, externally-imposed requirement.

Here is a variation: write C program to print ";"
without using semicolon, digits, double quote, and single quote.
Assume ascii.

Earlier, I wrote a program to print "Hello, world" without using literal
values (numbers, characters or strings) at all. It also assumed ASCII.
By combining this and various techniques presented in this thread your
problem can be solved.

ASCII is off-topic in comp.lang.c. I think you meant to say,
"Do not assume ASCII."

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define Z ((int)NULL)
#define P(x) printf(#x
#define L(x) #x
#define S L(| |)[!Z]
int f(int l,int i){if((i=l,!Z)& &l==Z&&P(%c%c%d \n),S,S,Z)&&f
(++i,i)){}else if(--l==Z&&P(\n))&&f (++i,i)){}else if(--l==Z
&&P(%c%c%d\n),S ,S,Z)&&f(++i,i) ){}else if(--l==Z&&P(%c/\n),S
)&&f(++i,i)){}e lse if(exit(Z),Z){} }int main(){if(f(Z,Z )){}}
