connect two USB ports on the same computer

I got a school assignment to transfer data from one usb port to the other usb port on the same computer.

I bought a male to male usb cable so I can connect two of my usb ports together.

Can I damage my computer this way?

thanks.

No, but there will be no data transfer possible either. USB requires active components to be present. A PC is always a host and requires an USB device for successful connection.
