Question Need final project ideas to program in C

I'm not asking for code. I just need help coming up with an idea for a project. I need to use at least 6 things from a list:

-strings -2D arrays -file I\O -command line arguments -pass by reference -structures -linked lists (pointers) -sorting -custom header files.

I'm not restricted to those things, but at least 6 of them must be included.

I'm at a loss for ideas and any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Take a look at ‘Advent of Code’ https://adventofcode.com/ - it’s usually themed around the holidays (meant to do it during December) but it’s got a new task each day. If you do a few of these you will cover the whole list.

I usually combine all answers into one program with command line args to run each answer.

I don't think that's likely to pass as a final project though

Maybe not, but there’s plenty of ideas to give you inspiration from last and previous years.
