I need some help coming up with an idea for a final project for ICS4M (Gr 12). We learned C++, and we know classes, streams, some sorting methods, arrays, vectors, matrices, and I also kinda know linked lists, and pointers, and could easily brush up on those concepts. I need an idea for a final project that ISN'T a game. Any suggestions?
Btw, I will be doing this all by myself.

A file compressor, encryption program or checksum generator maybe? You could use classes to represent different algorithms and use virtual base classes as interfaces.

You could make a program that trys to sort and orgianzie peoleops hard drivers, removes duplicate files (that are not system crtical) and shows a visual repseation of hard drive useage.

You could make an IRC Client or Bot.

An e-mail clinet, a SQL client, ssh clinet, telnet clinet, ftp clinet, a web broswer a web siper or bot.

Make your own IM, chat or file transfer system.

Make an image editing program, a screen captor and/or screen cast program, make a media player, your own IDE, ect....

I have looked into sockets, but they seem very hard and confusing! For an SQL client, what exactly do you mean by that?

Anyone got ideas for a C++ final project that's not a game, and preferably not network related?

Well we have already given you a bunch of ideas, maybe if you where more specific about what you want to do/make and your programming abllitys?

Some more ideas:

A calacualtor (console based) or graphing calcaulator (image/visual absed).

A program that can pass or trys to pass the turing test: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test

File converts, a program that converts one file type to another.

Some kind of disk space visualizer or listing of what files take up the most space on the disk.
