Further and further, the universe does suggest I need to start teaching an online coding class or something :)
The calendar program sounds pretty easy, although it depends a bit on the output format you want and how complex your calendar system is. The other one pretty much requires a graphical interface, which takes a bit more time. Depends on the language you use and what your foundation is, but they'd both be pretty good learning tasks IMO.
Any thoughts given as to what programming language you're interested in?
"They ask what my goal is, what I want to make with it." I always found this the most peculiar question to ask. I learn because it seems interesting, because I want to know how the art works. I didn't learn calculus to solve a specific formula, and I didn't learn physics with any specific pyrotechnic application in mind. Why should I have a specific goal to programming? :)
Although, honestly, the ability to write little convenience programs like you mentioned makes it a really cool field of study!!
