What should i do next?

[ShadowReaper]

I have been learning C and C++ over the last few years...

My problem is i don't know where to go next. I know how to use pointers, classes etc... in C++ but i haven't written an actual program, only assigments from the university(calculating arithmetic means, mean deviation etc)...

I have thought of joining some opensource project but i do not have prior experience...

Thank you

Look for internships that require little or no experience, there are some out there. This will get u enough expierence to move onto something bigger. That is what I will be doing once I finish my associates. In the meantime I just write programs for myself. My own version of Notepad, re-do classic arcade games. You could start learning other programming languages also, im sure knowing several wont hurt on an application.

Learn how to properly multithread, that's something that they rarely teach in university, but a very important tool
