[Venged]

Any one have any idea's on a program a beginner should write... no no a helloo world one i mean a real program that would be easy and help me learn off of. If i get a good idea ill code it and post it up for download on a website.

One of the programs I first made was an address book program that lets you input names, addresses and phone numbers. It saves them to file. It lets you search for a name (case insensitive, and partial names allowed for searching), delete records, modify records, etc.

You could start on something like that and think of better ways to improve it, or challenge yourself further.

another idea is make a game start simple and build on it using new knowlege (a simple arena would be good depending on how far you are) with oponents stored in arrays (or vectors).

You might try to make a text-based game, like so (not good syntax, I know);

/* libraries & such */

int main()
{
/* a load of variables */
cout << "Your mother calls you up. What do you do? 1. Get up, or 2. Stay.";
cin >> //variable
if(blah)
//do this crud 

and so on.

+1 for Sudoku Solver. It's a good project a beginner could do.
