This application is an implementation of the game tic-tac-toe and provides a 'computer' opponent. The following algorithm has been implemented to determine the computer players next move.
The algorithm follows these steps in order to determine the next move:
-
Win: If the player has two in a row, they can place a third to get three in a row.
-
Block: If the opponent has two in a row, the player must play the third themselves to block the opponent.
-
Center: A player marks the center. (If it is the first move of the game, playing on a corner gives the second player more opportunities to make a mistake and may therefore be the better choice; however, it makes no difference between perfect players.)
-
Opposite corner: If the opponent is in the corner, the player plays the opposite corner.
-
Empty corner: The player plays in a corner square.
-
Empty side: The player plays in a middle square on any of the 4 sides.
