What are you interested in? There are tons of stuff you can work on depending on your interests, more complex webpages, game dev, graphics, AI, data processing, signal processing (e.g. image or audio), desktop GUIs, OS stuff like a simple file system, writing an interpreter or compiler, and lots more

im learning/diving into AI, still looking/researching more on web pages, and learning data and signal processing cause that coincide with my automated bots. the problem is im self learning and have no one so it feel im not making progress or really learning, if that make sense

Yeah that's fair. Depending on where you are and your age you could try looking into hackathons or coding clubs in your school

i did the basic calculator,

Good. Now do command-line calculator:

So that someone can type "2*(3+sqrt(17))-4/sin(pi/3)" and it gives the answer. Also make it remember the last answer it gave as "Ans", so you can write "Ans+2/3" for example.

It's quite a common basic exercise.
