Earlier tonight I was making a programming challenge list for experienced programmers. These are all small tasks but the question is can you do them. Create a 1. Mandelbrot 2. Julia set 3. Ray tracer with shading and shadows of a few simple spheres 4. A simple virtual machine 5. Rewrite the first three programs in the virtual machines assembler 6. A simple language such as Forth for the virtual machine 7. Rewrite the first three programs in your implemented language All of these 7 tasks together will likely take under 2,000 lines of code, maybe even under 1,000. If you know what you're doing, each one individually should take under an hour. Doing a write-up about your experience with this would be great. Each one of these tasks has tradeoffs and can reflect personality and approach. This is version 1.0 of this, and I just came up with it a few hours ago so I'm open to slight modifications (perhaps an extremely easy game instead of one of the fractals)
