I started python about 2 days ago. I need some good beginner projects to further my knowledge. Ive already made a calculator and I'm looking for something a little more advanced.

It all depends on where you want to go... you can use pygame and try your hand at game programming, or you could do something like a Brainfuck interpreter.

Edited:

some other fairly simple ideas:

unit converter (miles to km, celsius to farenheit, etc.)
text-based adventure game
basic networking (something really simple, like send a byte to a local port, have a server program that receives the byte as a command and sends some data back based on the input byte.
searching and sorting algorithms
8-bit sound generator (look up sfxr for an example)

Iv learnt bits of python on and off recently aswell so thanks for some neat ideas

This makes me want to play with python.

honestly judging by what he's done those seem a bit too out of range for him
i would suggest trying the project euler challenges which can be solved with some simple functions

or maybe im just really shitty at python because i learned it a couple days ago and i have only solved the first couple of problems on project euler
