Greetings! I am trying to make a multiplayer (no AI, 2 person) game of
tic tac toe in Python. So far it has been pretty simple. My only
concern is with the win checking to see if a person has won. At first
it looked like it was working, but now it sometimes assigns a win when
you enter an X or O (doesn't matter) on certain tiles (row 1, column 1
won't be an error, but row 2, column 3 will be...). If you can find
the problem, I'd be very thankful! Here's the code:
# TIC TAC TOE
# Started: 10/31/05
# Ended: still in progress
loop = 1
while loop == 1:
print "TIC TAC TOE"
print "1 - Play Multiplayer"
print "2 - Quit"
option = input("> ")
if option == 2:
# QUIT
loop = 0
if option == 1:
# MAIN GAME LOOP
print "Rules: You will alternate turns."
print "On your turn, you can place your letter (O = Player 1 or
X = Player 2)",
print "in any unoccupied square."
print "The first to get 3 in a row wins. Good luck!"
gameboard = [' ',' ',' ',' ',' ',' ',' ',' ',' ']
win = 0
turnnumber = 0
while win != 1:
if turnnumber % 2 == 0:
print " "
print "Player 1"
