Homework Assignments

I am reaching out to anyone willing to dedicate a bit of time to helping me learn C++. I realize that I can read through this "C++ All In One for Dummies" book from cover to cover and perhaps never retain more than 25% of it if I do not utilize every bit of the information I receive.

While I understand what I'm reading and am more than capable of typing the examples out and 'understanding' what I'm doing, I'd much rather have a way to put my brain to work by using the things I've learned to do something that isn't just 'coming to the top of my head'. Maybe that confuses some of you, but maybe I'll explain in simpler terms:

I need homework assignments!

I would greatly appreciate anyone willing to give me homework assignments based off of my progress in the book C++ All In One for Dummies. And, of course, one person wouldn't have to give me homework assignments -- perhaps several people could do it and even debate whether my code is as efficient as it could be, etc. Perhaps it could start a debate as to how the code may be fixed to be easier to read or perhaps more efficient for the compiler.

Whatever the help may be, please help.

I currently have learned how to assign variables (int, char, string). I know how to do cout, cin, and also arithmetic (+, -, *, /, %).

I realize this isn't a lot but I think it will be best to put what I DO know to a test for a program that does something I haven't thought of based off what I currently know. This would be great practice.

Thank you and forgive my long-winded plea for help.

TL;DR
I need a homework assignment(s) based around: int, char, string variable assignments, arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /, %) and also cout, cin.
