Sample Project Ideas
A few years ago I found a list on the internet of 10 things to do when learning a new programming language. I thought it was interesting and shared it with my coworkers at the time. A couple of weeks ago, one of my former coworkers contacted me and asked me for the list. The site has since disappeared and I could not find the same information, but by coincidence I saw a link in an RSS feed recently for a similar idea. The list is titled Martyr2′S Mega Project Ideas List! and it contains 150 different project ideas organized into 10 categories.
A sample of the ideas includes:
- Find PI to the Nth Digit
- Fibonacci Sequence
- Distance Between Two Cities
- Dijkstra’s Algorithm
- Pig Latin
- Post it Notes Program
- CD Key Generator
- FTP Program
- Packet Sniffer
- Small Web Server
- Web Bot
- Bank Account Manager
- Vending Machine
- Family Tree Creator
- Quiz Maker
- Image Map Generator
- Traffic Light Application
- Hangman
- Magic 8 Ball
- BlackJack (and several other card games)
There are many more great ideas and maybe these will give you something to use next time you want to explore a new language.
