mikesta707 Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 So I have to learn Python for my job as a tutor at my college. I know all the basic stuff, and the syntax that goes along with it, and the more advanced stuff I can figure out pretty easily (just have to learn the syntactical rules for it) Does anyone have any ideas for interesting, medium level projects I can do? Or a website with some cool projects? I've always been bad at coming up with ideas... I was thinking of making a chat program, but I want to do a simpler project before I get into a chat program. I will be using the Tkinter module for a gui, if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 The first program I wrote in Python was a simple 'notes' command line program. Here's the output of its -h call. thorpe@oblivion ~ $ note -h Usage: note.py [OPTION]... [NOTE / SEARCH STRING]... Take a note, or display notes. -a --add Add a new note. -d --del Delete note(s) specified by note number. -h --help This help file. -s --search Search notes for a search. thorpe@oblivion ~ $ I still use this program allot (written about 4 years ago) to keep notes on what admin tasks Ive done on servers and stuff. Originally I had it simply writing to a text file, but now days it writes to an sqlite database. Ive also been thinking of building a small server into it so that I can keep all my notes (from all my machines) within one central location. Just an idea.

Daniel0 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 How about Project Euler? This weekend I've also written a program that solves sudokus and generates random sudokus. I didn't do it in Python, but you could try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesta707 Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 wow thanks both of you. I like that note taking program idea a lot, and I think i'll try some of the Project Euler problems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
