Im currently learning C++.(Reading up on pointers right now)

What programs should i attempt to make?

I've covered the basics,functions,input/output,if,loops,and switch.

Any ideas would be helpful.

Make program like bank:
1st it will ask pin, the pin is in some random file in same folder.
If its right ask how much would you like to take out (money that is), your money ammount should be in random file too (use Bank.txt or something like that). If you dont have enough money make error message, if you do have program says moneys taken or something and then calculates new value in that bank.txt file... Oh and if you fail the pin to many times make something to happend like, give error message "Pin failed 3 times, card sucked in" and then exit program.

Try that

you can find many challenges in sites like HTS

Look at the small apps you use all the time and remake it yourself with more features. Start with something small though, don't get yourself in over your head to the point where you want to give up.

Thanks guys I'll try the bank one, just one question, Is there a tutorial on importing / creating outside files, I didn't see much on the tutorials I read.

search for reading a file and writing a file.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int checkPin(int pin,bool correct);
int main()
{
int pin=0000;
int choice=0;
bool correct=false;
cout<<"Bank Program";
cout<<"\n Please enter your pin number";
cin>>pin;
checkPin(int pin, bool correct);
cin.get();
return 0;
}
int checkPin(int pin,bool correct)
{
int tries=0;
while(tries<4){
if(pin!=1234)
{
cout<<"\nIncorrect pin please enter the correct pin.";
tries++;
}
if(pin==1234)
{
correct=true;
}
}
if(tries==4)
{
cout<<"\nCard eaten, have a nice day.";
tries=0;
}
}
int withdraw(int choice)
{

}


This is what I have so far, im just a little lost on the whole I/O thing i even tried looking it up many times, but most of the tutorials make no sense...

[The Dami3n]

so my idea was good

[TheSorc3r3r]

For what he's doing you don't need anything except a simple text file and fopen/fread/fwrite.

[HomerSexual]

change your if in CheckPin to <= 4 or else you will never get the card tries to = 4.

- bool correct will be always false, because you're not messing with pointers. -> Use pointers.
- What if user inputs a string, not numbers? -> Make a check.
- If you want to pause your program like that, the proper way instread of std::cin.get(); is
