Tic Tac Toe

This is a simple command line version of the classic game Tic Tac Toe, written in Python. The game board is represented by a 3x3 grid of cells, and players take turns placing their markers (X or O) on the board until one player wins or the game ends in a tie.

Requirements

This game requires Python 3.x and the art module to be installed. You can install art using pip:

pip install art

How to Play

To start the game, run

python TicTacToe.py

The game will display a 3x3 grid with empty cells represented by blank spaces. Player 1 will be X and Player 2 will be O.

On their turn, players will be prompted to choose a row and column to place their marker. Players must input numbers between 0 and 2 to choose a valid cell. If the chosen cell is already taken, the player will be prompted to choose again.

The game will continue until one player wins by placing their markers in a row, column, or diagonal, or until the game board is filled with markers and no more moves are possible, resulting in a tie.

Code Explanation

The game logic is defined by several functions, including display_board() which prints the current state of the game board, and check_win(marker) which checks if a player has won by placing their markers in a row, column, or diagonal.

The play_game() function is the main game loop that prompts players to take turns and updates the game board until a winner is determined or the game ends in a tie. The game uses the random module to simulate the moves of Player 2.

Enjoy the game!
