Re: Need some ideas for a large-ish Python project

IRC bot is really fun to make, and the protocol is pretty simple too, so simple you could actually sit on IRC using telnet only if you're hardcore. I coded a simple bot from scratch in C (string parsing in C is so "fun") in one day. smile

What's with the sarcasm quotes? It *is* fun! Writing a decent algorithm takes a bit of cleverness, but that's what makes it fun in the first place.

Do you want to know what is fun? Writing a bunch of SQL queries. No, really. It is! I get excited when I realize I need to write a query

Indeed. I could agree on that. It's a reason my favourite language is C. smile
