How to add url for view in Django?

This is views file: from django.http import HttpResponse

def hello_world(request): return HttpResponse('Hello World')

And urls in file. This approach is not working for me

newspaper/urls.py 
from django.conf.urls import url
import views
urlpatterns = [
  url(r'^$', include(hello_world))
]

I answered this in another forum page, but the first task of the challenge just asks you to 'import the views module from the current directory'. Once you do that, the next task will give you more detail on how to create the URL.
