Practical Programming Projects

[reverend boltron]

This is my first time doing programming outside of the console project and web development, so I was wondering what some good programs would be to create.

I like doing practical work that I can reuse later, or will enhance my experience on the computer.

I don't have a Customer Relationship Management program, but I think that might be a bit much for my first undertaking in a new language.

I'm programming for OS X, if you didn't know. So if anyone has any ideas, I am all ears.

I'm not opposed to doing games either. But I think I can only take so much tic-tac-toe and connect four.

Thanks in advance!

make a program that stores a list of definitions displayed in a scroll box. when starts typing the word the definition will actively start scrolling toward it (in th box, like firefox's search technique). also make it so people can add definitions. then make it so the user can click on flash card to have a list of random definitions that they can match to the word and vice versa.

then send me a pm when it is finished so i can use it to study.

also make a button that says multiple choice test. when the user clicks on it he can specify how many questions and then it will create a multiple choice test (matching word to definition).

thank in advance

I'm currently working on a cookbook app for OSX and have plans to write a nice bittorrent client using libtorrent next.
