MiniMax Tic-Tac-Toe

Introduction

Welcome to MiniMax Tic-Tac-Toe, a simple console-based implementation of the classic Tic-Tac-Toe game using the MiniMax algorithm. This project demonstrates the basic principles of artificial intelligence (AI) in gaming.

Features

Play Tic-Tac-Toe against a computer opponent. Computer uses the MiniMax algorithm to make optimal moves. Console-based interface for easy interaction.

Prerequisites

To compile and run this program, you'll need:

C++ compiler (e.g., g++) Command-line environment (e.g., Terminal on macOS/Linux or Command Prompt on Windows)

Getting Started

Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/Enigma_014/tic_tac_toe

Navigate to the project directory:

cd tic_tac_toe

Compile the program:

g++ main.cpp -o tic_tac_toe

Run the game:

./tic_tac_toe

Follow the on-screen instructions to play against the computer.

How to Play

You are 'X,' and the computer is 'O.' Enter your move by specifying the row and column (e.g., "1 2" for the first row, second column). The computer will respond with its move, and the game continues. The game will end when there is a winner or a draw.

Algorithm

The computer uses the MiniMax algorithm to determine its moves. This algorithm ensures that the computer always plays optimally and makes it impossible to beat.
