Starter project for an absolute beginner?

A game! It's fun to make and will teach you a lot about the language

Hangman and mastermind/codebreaker are fun games to make

If someone wants to join our company, they have to program a calculator in PB.
Only +,-,*and /

This is doable in a few hours and you will get the knowledge of event handling in PB.

Or, a simple image viewer.

Hi! Any ideas on a simple project to get started for someone who's familiar with programming but entirely unfamiliar with PureBasic?

• Learn to manage graphics: Image viewer and editor, clock ?
• Learn sound: Media player ?
• Learn sprites: space invader, PacMan ?
• Learn databases (ie: SQLite): Address book, Personal account manager ?
• Learn drag and drop: Program launcher ?

All of this can be done with PB internal functions!

Some examples of what I did with PureBasic (just to learn and keep my mind busy)
All graphical interfaces are realized with the internal form designer (the largest program contains 28 windows)

It's a shame he abandoned PureBasic - his videos were great!

I also had an idea to make a video. This is a video ad for keyword auto-completion. If you download (10 MB), the quality will be better than in the browser.

It looks like the link is dead

It is now, but it worked yesterday (I started watching it but it was in Russian, so I stopped). Weird that it's been taken down so quickly.

It looks like the link is dead. Do you maybe have another?
