- Write a program that lets two humans play Tic-Tac-Toe against each other.
- Implement a command line interface that lets the humans play the game by typing commands into the terminal.
- Players should be able to input their moves.
- The board should be shown after each move.
- The game should announce the result of the game when it's over.
O X X
X X O
O X O
- There are two players in the game (X and O).
- The board is 9 positions in a 3x3 grid.
- Players take turns until the game is over.
- A player can claim a position if it is not already taken.
- A turn ends when a player claims a position.
- A player wins if they make a line by claiming 3 boxes in a row, 3 positions in a column, or 3 positions in a diagonal.
- If all positions are taken and neither player has a line, the game is a draw.
I'm going to use a multi-dimensional array for the board.
board = [['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d', 'e', 'f'], ['g', 'h', 'i']]
Then to reference the coordinates of each cell I be able to locate them as they will be numbered like so:
| [0][0] | [0][1] | [0][2] |
|---|---|---|
| [1][0] | [1][1] | [1][2] |
| [2][0] | [2][1] | [2][2] |
Lastly my domain model for this tech test will be as follows:
