While I was studying GRE vocabulary, I didn't have time to dedicate a separate time for memorizing them so I made a flashcard player that would show each word and reveal its meaning after a couple of seconds. It would also play the pronunciation and you could set the card playback speed. This program could be useful if you spend a lot of time in front of the computer and you don't mind occasionally learning a new word.
I used Visual Studio, C++ language and MFC Windows Application for this project.
In order for the app to stay responsive while the audio was playing, I used a thread to handle the playback.
Here are some of the features
- App always on top option
- Playing pronunciation audio
- Shuffle playing cards
- Changing flashcard front and back playback speed
Download the content of App and you are all set.
You can add your own audio files and place the Audio folder next to the GRE.exe file.
