2) Program for Money

Having only minimal knowlege of programming this may seem like a difficult task, but alas, it does not take much knowlege in programming to create a program that can make you some quick cash. The uber basic skills I have consist of Visual Basic, Java, Java Script, C++, and PovRay.

In High School, I made a racing program that consisted of 3 cars running a drag race. There were many variables that increaced or decreaced each car's chance of winning. Given that I was the programmer, and knew all of the possible variables, weather, drivetrain, torque, mis-shifting, nitrous, etc, etc...it became very clear that I could not partake in the game against my freinds.

After some time I redesigned the game to be slightly more random, but still follow the same basic trends...nothing was preset, but the cars had tendencies to do different things. Now I could participate in the game, not win every time, and still have fun. After a while though, some people started taking bets against the game. Money was exchanged and people won and lost. I, on the other hand, stopped participating once this began because of my unfair, yet not complete, advantage.

The time has come to reinvent this game. The idea for the week is to code the game before finals are over (Extending my week-idea-time until the 20th) and make $20 here at college.
