Ideas

If anyone who reads this has any ideas for programs for me to make, just leave a post. I'm always looking for a challenge.

Glace

I found a really fun game called Glace. It's a sidescroller made by Tommy Visic.

The Combination Cracker

I just finished this program yesterday, so I won't be releasing the source code anytime soon. I wrote it in C++, and its purpose is to whittle down the number of combinations you need to try on an older Master Lock. It doesn't work on combination locks with serial numbers beginning with 9. Read the included readme for more information.

Download here.

Note: Again, you will need the .NET Framework v3.5 to run this program.

This program is different from my other programs in that it does not have a GUI. You will need to run it from the command prompt. If you double-click it in Windows, it will run, but then exit as soon as it is done and you will be all like "WTF?!?, this program's broken!", but it's not. It will output a file called Possible Combinations.txt in the same folder that it is saved in.

The Beeper

This is another one of my programs, written in C#. It doesn't have any bugs that I know of. If you find any, I would appreciate it if you left a comment on this post stating the bug so I can fix it.
This is a really simple program that beeps at the frequency and for the duration that you specify.

Download here.
Source code here.

Before you use this program, if you are wearing headphones, take them off, as this program causes a very loud beep to be played.

Note: You will need the .NET Framework v3.5 to run any of my programs, because I compiled them with Visual Studio 2008. You can download the Framework here.

The Units Converter

Well, yesterday I said I would give you my Units Converter, so here it is. Download. I wrote it in C#, and it still has a few problems, such as saying that 12 inches is 0.999999987 feet. The source code is available here. (I recommend 7-zip for decompressing archives.)

First Post!

Well, this is my first post ever. My name is Ben, and I love computers. I have written a few programs in C++, which I will make available in a few days, along with their source code. Please check back often!
