ShadowReaper Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I have been learning c++ but my problem is i don't know what to do next. I know how to use pointers, classes etc... in C++ but i haven't written a real program, only assigments from the university(calculating arithmetic means, mean deviation etc)... What should i do? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Andre S. Veteran Posted November 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Write a cool application in it, for fun. A game (something SMALL! Breakout, Tetris, etc.) would be a great idea. You may want to use a specific library for that, like SFML or SDL. If you really have no idea, learn another language. C# would teach you a lot of new concepts, and its game development framework, XNA, is top-notch. Edited November 12, 2009 by Dr_Asik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ViZioN Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 You could make a small console chat program that can communicate via sockets. Think of it as a very lightweight MSN :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
