Programming Examples

Examples of projects are useful to get a sense for the kinds of things that are possible with programming. Some of my own projects from college include this robotic arm and this iOS sudoku generator. I also recommend checking out Arduino projects on Instructables and these examples of data presentation for examples of projects.
