Posted via CodeCall Mobile Ive been programming in python for a week now and the most advanced project Ive done so far is a number guessing game. Any suggestions on what I should try to accomplish next?

Why not try to create another game? Maybe a minesweeper game or even a Su Do Ku program...

[Andrew.G]

Posted via CodeCall Mobile that sounds a little advanced anything a little simpler?

[Brandon W]

Hmmm since you have a guess the number game... Why not Scissors, Paper, Rock? That's simple and a bit more advanced.

Posted via CodeCall Mobile yeah once i do that then ill want to delve into some gui stuff also.

[Brandon W]

That would be good, if you create a few games like guess the number and Scissors, Paper, Rock you can turn them into a GUI program for practice :)

tic tac toe I think was assigned to me after the number guessing game

maybe not a game, what about learning stacks/heaps, etc

Posted via CodeCall Mobile thats probably a good idea because i have no idea what those are lol

Tic-tac-toe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Look at the tutorials for information on those. Things like stacks and queues are different ways of representing your data which can make programming easier.

Minesweeper would be fun to make (and isn't really tricky) it would give you an opportunity to test gui code, using 2 dimensional arrays and recursive methods. It would be a lot of fun. :)

Posted via CodeCall Mobile ok ill do a rock paper scissors then try to implement a gui for that then ill try to tackle minesweeper. :)

You could even do minesweeper without a GUI first. :) That would let you try out all the concepts first without a graphical interface messing you up. See this for an idea of what I am talking about. http://nayuki.eigens...ite200510p4.pdf. :)

Have fun with rock, paper, scissors. :)
