I'm a CS student working for an investment bank this summer and I want to make sure that I write a little code (~10min) every day. Is there a book/online list of problems I can draw from this summer

#3If there's any piece of open-source software that you like and use, maybe you could try to fix some bugs for that? Once you know a project, it's possible that each bug would take only a few minutes, especially if it's new and growing.
It's also a great boost for your resume.

The classic Programming Pearls is not exactly a book of problems, but a book of ideas.
You can probably examine a few of the ideas and play with them like toys. Toys are more fun than problems.

#9The C Programming Language, Second Edition; Ritchie and Kernighan; has end of section and end of chapter problems that are pretty good. Especially if you want to learn C.
