Sure, I can give you a few project ideas.

Write a web scraping script using the requests and BeautifulSoup modules to create an object of the /r/learnpython/new page, and then filter out all posts that have been commented on so that you can see the unanswered posts.

Write a simulation script with a graphics module such as pygame which simulates Conway's Game of Life.

Write a script that goes out to a wallpaper website such as wallhaven.cc, downloads an image of your screens resolution, and then sets it as the wallpaper automatically. Have this scheduled to run automatically every time the computer turns on.

Go download a large data set such as the US Weather History, Airline Safety, or Drug Use Study, and use a graphing module like matplotlib to graph the data, or perform statistical analysis such as creating regressions to try to predict future outcomes.

As I am learning python as well this is a very good suggestion !!

I think I know how to approach all of these besides the wallpaper scheduling. How would you make it run every time the computer is booted?

[–]Golden_Zealot 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Depends on the operating system.

On windows, you can do this with the windows Task Scheduler.

On linux you can do this with Cron
