    Default Programming in Java, I need your suggestions.

    So basically I have programming class but I have no idea what I should program. Could anyone come with some neat suggestions. Also, I haven't programmed a lot so nothing that requires a lot of knowledge about the language.

    Thank you <3

    Play with Robocode.You program Bots in Java then set them loose on each other. It's fun.

    I am wondering if that Robocode will be to much for you if you just have a basic understanding of Java. If you do not know how to do Swing or make a GUI in Java then I suggest trying to make a calculator. It will work help improve all basics, kind of be fun and give you a good amount of experience in Classes (if you choose to make it like that).

    Well I've pretty much started out this semester so I haven't got that far yet.
    But I've already made a calculator.
    Perhaps I should try to make a graphical calculator.

    It'll be no problem. I had no experience in Java when I had to program a Robocode bot for a competition.

    Although I didn't really make programs, but I did have some basic C++ programming knowledge at that time.
