Programming Projects ?

[hentaiw]

I'm learning C++ and I'm out of projects to do.

When I google I can only find easy ones,or must-pay,or not accessible.

Hope you guy can give me some resources.A good site with free projects sorted by programming language and environment or level.

Thanks.

You could always try making a simple game. I find that games work well, as there's plenty you can add and redo at later stages when you've learnt more. You can try Tic-Tac-Toe, battleships, card games, rpg's etc. Quite a lot is possible, even within CMD.

Oh...CMD isn't great for games...I've mad some...like Game Of Life... I can't simply clear screen to put the new things.like the command "cls"

You can use the following function to move the cursor around the screen and 'cout' single chars:

#include <iostream>		//cout
#include <Windows.h>	//COORD / getstdhandle ( windows functions )
#include <conio.h>		// _kbhit()

void gotoxy( int x, int y );

int main()
{
	char c = '*';

	gotoxy( 5, 7 );
	std::cout << c;

	gotoxy( 21, 16 );
	std::cout << c;

	gotoxy( 3, 18 );
	std::cout << c;

	gotoxy( 68, 3 );
	std::cout << c;

	//set the position for the "Press and key..."
	gotoxy( 1, 23 );
	std::cout << "Press any key to continue...";

	//press a key to continue...
	//while there isn't a key being pressed
	while( ! _kbhit() )
	{ /* do nothing - wait for a key press, before exiting */ }

	return 0;
}

void gotoxy( int x, int y )
{
	//create a COORD object
	COORD coord;

	//set the x and y co-ordinates
	coord.X = x;
	coord.Y = y;

	//set the values in the console
	SetConsoleCursorPosition( GetStdHandle( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE ), coord);
}

Create a new project and have a play around with this. If you want to move across the console etc:

erase at the current position
get the new position
move to it
draw the char
