Tic-Tac-Toe

Tic-Tac-Toe Game in C++

Overview

This is a simple console-based Tic-Tac-Toe game implemented in C++. The game allows two players to take turns playing on a 3x3 grid until one player wins or the game ends in a draw.

Features

• Play against another human player.
• Alternates turns between players 'X' and 'O'.
• Detects win conditions for rows, columns, and diagonals.
• Detects a draw condition when the board is full and there is no winner.
• Validates player input to ensure moves are within the bounds of the board and not on an already occupied cell.

Requirements

To compile and run this program, you need:

• A C++ compiler (e.g., g++)

Compilation

To compile the program, use the following command:

g++ -o tic_tac_toe main.cpp

This will generate an executable file named main.

Running the Game

After compilation, you can run the game with:

./tic_tac_toe

Follow the prompts to enter your moves. The board will be displayed after each move, and the game will announce the winner or a draw when the game ends.

How to Play

1. Player 'X' starts the game by entering the row and column numbers where they want to place their mark.
2. Player 'O' takes their turn similarly.
3. The game continues until a player wins or the board is full, resulting in a draw.
4. The game will display who won or if it ended in a draw and then terminate.
