❌About Tic-Tac-Toe ⭕

Tic-tac-toe is a paper-and-pencil game for two players, X and O, who take turns marking the spaces in a 3×3 grid. The player who succeeds in placing three of their marks in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row is the winner.

📐 About The Project

We created the game Tic Tac Toe using Ruby.

The game has a basic interface that runs in the terminal.

The goals of this project are:

• Practice with OOP (Object Oriented Programming) using Ruby.
• Learn how to create and structure a Ruby project.
• Learn to manage the files with correct usage to make code maintainable.
• Practice Git Flow and Github Flow creating branches for different features and for version control.
• This is part of the Odin project curriculum https://www.theodinproject.com/courses/ruby-programming/lessons/oop

📋 Game Rules

• Two player game
• Player will have tokens or symbols (X or O)
• Players take turns choosing a cell of the board to mark their symbol.
• A player can only choose an empty cell if not will return an error until input is in an empty cell.
• The first player to complete a succession of 3 of their assigned symbol (O's or X's) in a row, column or diagonal wins!
• If all of the cells are filled with a symbol and no player matched 3 symbols, the game ends in a tie.

📝 Game Instructions

Once you run the game on the terminal, follow the instructions and prompts on screen.

• Both players should enter their preferable name or nickname
• Then it will display your tokens (X or O) and the turns will go accordingly to first and second player
• After the board is displayed the player should input their token accordingly to the empty slot (1 to 9).

For example:

Figure 1.                   Figure 2.
[ ]  [ ]  [ ]               [X]  [ ]  [ ]
 1    2    3                 1    2    3
[ ]  [ ]  [ ]      -->      [ ]  [ ]  [ ]
 1    2    3                 4    5    6
[ ]  [ ]  [ ]               [ ]  [ ]  [ ]
 1    2    3                 7    8    9

Player 1 is your turn! What will be your play?

• If the player try to input in a filled slot, it will prompt again until the player input an empty slot.
• Players' goal is to connect three tokens consecutive by row, column or diagonal.

For example

[O]  [O]  [O]               [X]  [X]  [X]
 1    2    3                 1    2    3
[O]  [O]  [ ]       or      [X]  [X]  [ ]
 1    2    3                 4    5    6
[O]  [ ]  [O]               [X]  [ ]  [X]
 1    2    3                 7    8    9

• You win after connecting three tokens
• After winning, you'll both decide if want to play again and build up a scoreboard.

Enjoy!!

Built With

• Ruby

🖥️ Setup for starting Tic Tac Toe

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.

Prerequisites

Computer running Mac OS, Windows, or Linux Ubuntu. Internet browser: Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera...

Have Ruby installed you can see this link for more detailed instructions Install Ruby

Installation

You MUST have Ruby installed in your system. If you don't have it installed you can go this page Install Ruby

After installing ruby, you can download the repo or clone it (paste on the terminal) git clone git@github.com:jcy2704/tic-tac-toe.git

💻 Run Tic-Tac-Toe

You will need to execute the tictactoe file located inside the bin folder. If you are using Window, follow next step.

Windows

Open the terminal and navigate to the folder using cd path-to-folder containing the tic-tac-toe game. Once you are inside, your terminal should look like this: User//oop-ruby/. You can type or paste this on terminal bin/tictactoe to run the game.

Mac and Linux

Most Mac and some of Linux computers come with ruby installed, but still need to verify by typing in your terminal ruby --version if not please go back to Installation section.

After verifying you have ruby installed and completing the Installation section, open the terminal navigate using cd path-to-folder containing the tic-tac-toe game and run in the terminal bin/tictactoe to run the game.

Test Code with Rspec

To be able to test your code with Rspec, you should have Ruby and Rspec installed in your computer. To install rspec type in your terminal gem install rspec. After installing rspec, just got to the project folder and run rspec in the terminal.
