Hi,
So I'm new to Java. Last year I took it in my high school and now I'm taking AP computer science which is all Java too. I'm looking for a way to keep learning that is interesting. I would like to work on some type of projects just to keep me going but i have no ideas myself. I know that there are different websites set up with programming contests where they tell you what type of program to write and you have to do it, but I'm looking for one for beginners and i couldn't find any. I thought this would be a good way to keep learning and become part of a community
Does anyone know of any good contests like this or anything else to help me get some ideas and some inspiration?

Thanks,
Peter

Well the best way to learn more o some language is to start writing programs in it and solve the problems as they show up... and luckily java has a very good documentation for it's methods so it's really simple to look something up in java, Sun also has good java tutorials.

I was going to say something similar to this earlier today.

I'm wanting to learn some more C#, so I decided to start writing some small programs with it. I thought of something I do on my PC, that I could automate with a program.. and now I'm writing a program to sort through ~1600 pictures and put them in folders based on date * special occasions.
