Minesweeper

A simple minesweeper game implemented in Julia using a bit of OOP.

Features:

• Uses OOP (Object Oriented Programming)
• Checks and asks for valid user input at every step
• Code is commented
• Allows users to replay at the end of the game
• Custom grid sizes!
• Allows user to flag certain cells to help while playing

How to Play

Look up the instructions here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minesweeper_(video_game)

• To mine a cell in the ith row and jth column, the command is: m i j

• To flag a cell in the ith row and jth column, the command is: f i j

• To exit, the command is: exit foo bar

Note: foo and bar can be anything: Strings, random Integers, anything.

What do all these weird symbols mean?

• • denotes a mine
• ! denotes a flag
• � denotes a uncovered tile or cell.
• 1 or 2 or 3... denote the number of immediate mine neighbours a tile has.

Why?

Why not?
