I'm really sorry- I don't mean to come across as negative, but I think you're asking the wrong question. You know what you want to learn about but don't know what you want to learn.
You say you're "Looking for a project that teaches me something".
You need to figure out what that something is, then then look for a minimum viable experiment to work your way toward it.
- rich_sasha 5y agoHmm, if someone says, what’s a project to teach me about programming, there’s a ton. It is also well-defined in its own way, you need to know something before you even know how to narrow down your interests. A 0th step, “what’s a cool project roughly in this area” seems like a well-posed question.
- geocrasher 5y agoOkay, I can see your point. And I'll take you up on your offer. What's a project to teach me about programming?
- rich_sasha 5y agoHave a go at Logo - program a turtle. Make a Pythagoras tree with it, or any other fractal. Koch snowflake is also fun. Make a game for guessing a number 0..100 - game gives you “Goldilocks feedback”. Make a program that sorts numbers. Make a pong game. Make a Harry Potter “sorting hat”: ask a few questions and allocate to one of the houses on some silly rules. Just off the top of my mind.
