Look through the language's API for a feature you've never used before, and make a project that implements it.

Well you wont use them anyway after, so just make something useful like... A application that will take a screen shot and save it to a .bmp , .jpg

Make something that does NOT have a GUI that could actually solve a computer science problem. In your case, you should probably be using pascal.

For some sample problems, look here:
http://dwite.compsci.ca/old/index.html

Click on one of those links, then scroll to around middle to see the questions. The answers should also be there as well as sample solutions.

Constantly making those GUI apps that everyone seems to be making on this site does not actually increase your ability to think as a programmer. It only makes you more reliant on the IDE and its functions.

to sound noobish Rolling Eyes

whats GUI ?

DeltaFlyer · Posted: Wed Jun 20, 2007 12:43 pm Post subject:

Graphical User Interface. Those things that you make in Delphi by dragging boxes onto a window.

When I'm referring to a program without a GUI, I'm referring to a program that runs in command line, terminal, black box with words, whatever you call it.
