TICTAC
|
|
|
|
Matrix tic-tac-toe is played on a twenty by twenty matrix in a manner
|
|
similar to ordinary tic-tac-toe. The player and the computer will
|
|
alternately place a move at one of the matrix coordinates. Each will
|
|
try to place five moves in a row to effect a win. The player will be
|
|
able to define the playing strength of the program on a scale from 1
|
|
to 10. The player may let the program start playing -- or not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available commands are:
|
|
|
|
Cursor control (arrows or digits) -- moves cursor
|
|
|
|
Cursor movements may be given by either pressing arrow-marked keys
|
|
on the terminal or using the numeric keypad where the keys have
|
|
the following effect:
|
|
|
|
+------+-------+-------+
|
|

|
|

|
|
