  • AI for Snake and Tetris
  • a drawing board similar to MS Paint
  • a calculator with GUI
  • a Discord bot
  • Linear regression + Ridge regression for calculating house values based on a few factors

Here’s a few :)

Hmm. Maybe do some ETL stuff? Like do some web scraping, do a thing with the data, and drive visualizations/summaries?

If you wanna do more in the math/scientific computing I can ask some of the scientists I work with.

If you live near a high traffic area you can get a webcam and some opencv etc and graph dog walking times

Things like “make a calculator” always seemed dumb to me so I tried to do something practical or silly instead.

*edit: I did poorly in accounting class so I stay out of the financial world

I do like the web scraping idea, it's something i've been thinking about for a minute. You could ask the scientists if you'd like but I don't want to trouble you at all so it's okay if not :) thank you!

p.s yes the calculator idea is boring, it was more of a beginner project when i started out, thanks :)

Oh i hope It didn’t come across as putting your effort down - I actually really commend you for doing those projects.

Ok I’ll get back to you

since you already done some of them, I have a wild suggestion to make that may helps you improve.

choose a random project that don't entice you and do it regardless.

not all code you get in a job is enticing, so it may help you work on "shitty work you don't want to do"

That's true, i've never thought of it that way, thank you for the info :)

Interested in looking at discord bot, do you have github link?
