I need a starting point...

Question

I almost finished the Java course, and I understood most of the questions and examples, but I still have no idea what to do with it. Is there something like a collection of easy java problems? like "Write a program that does...!" or "Solve that problem using (some important coding strategy)

You guys get my point? I would be glad for some help! thanks a lot :)

Answer 1

I don't know Java, but I'll try and provide advice.

Take what you learn and test it. Take it to its limits (like when I discovered a loop, I made it spam forever), and/or try and do something new with it. You'll learn new things by playing around. And yes, try coding some projects. Pick something you're interested in, that you know you could do, but that you also don't understand 100%. That way you'll want to do it, will know where to start, but have challenges that will encourage you to learn and overcome them. If you need basic projects, my go-to is always generators. Make a super hero generator with stats or a cheesey action movie name generator, anything, skies the limit! You could try to make a calculator too, or a simple text game.

Wish you luck!
