Re: program ideas


One easy one that I did when I learned Python was figure out how to make a random number generator that replicates a dice roller. For example: 1d6, 2d8, 1d20, 1d100.

Not only do you have to figure out how to work with the random number library of the language but you also have to figure out how to limit and convert the numbers into equivalent dice rolls.

Re: program ideas


The triangle idea is basic geometry and trigonometry: given a triangle with lengths x, y, and z, find the area and the angles of the corners.

The second example is: given a triangle with one angle Q and sides x and y find the other angles and the third side.

The third example is just basic math: given the cost of an item and the tax rate, determine what the actual tax cost is.
