794. Valid Tic-Tac-Toe State

题目

A Tic-Tac-Toe board is given as a string array board. Return True if and only if it is possible to reach this board position during the course of a valid tic-tac-toe game.

The board is a 3 x 3 array, and consists of characters " ", "X", and "O". The " " character represents an empty square.

Here are the rules of Tic-Tac-Toe:

• Players take turns placing characters into empty squares (" ").
• The first player always places "X" characters, while the second player always places "O" characters.
• "X" and "O" characters are always placed into empty squares, never filled ones.
• The game ends when there are 3 of the same (non-empty) character filling any row, column, or diagonal.
• The game also ends if all squares are non-empty.
• No more moves can be played if the game is over.

Example 1:
Input: board = ["O  ", "   ", "   "]
Output: false
Explanation: The first player always plays "X".

Example 2:
Input: board = ["XOX", " X ", "   "]
Output: false
Explanation: Players take turns making moves.

Example 3:
Input: board = ["XXX", "   ", "OOO"]
Output: false

Example 4:
Input: board = ["XOX", "O O", "XOX"]
Output: true

Note:

1. board is a length-3 array of strings, where each string board[i] has length 3.
2. Each board[i][j] is a character in the set {" ", "X", "O"}.
