Hello, I am new to programming and just started learning my first language. Python. I was wondering if there are any good websites/books that give project ideas to build up my programming skills. What I was looking for was something that would ask you do something like, "make a program that gets an exam score and calculate a grade" or "make a program that simulates a tennis match or something". Then give an example of what the program should look like if you get stuck. Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you already have a bunch of ideas in your head, ready for coding. Nothing like creating your own projects. You could also search Google for something like "class assignment python" or something similar. It just takes a little creativity to find the right search to get what you want.

Regards,

Jeff
