Need ideas for beginner projects! (:

Question

To really understand java and create something new.
And to make a "PAP" out of it . (for school )

Answer 1

Play around. For example some of my first Python projects was a program that only prints even numbers of an array. Play around with some of the features and get the feel of it before going big with games and scientific calculators

Answer 2

calculator is a good one

Answer 3

After playing a while and learning with conditionals, loops, File I/O, Arrays, you can do:
1) Simulate Cash Register (bonus: Ticket Generator)
2) Movie Theater Seat Assigner(bonus: Generate random seats taken)
3) [CLASSIC] Tic-tac-toe (bonus: extend to nxn games instead of just 3x3)

And much much more.. I wish you success!
