I can't find a way to make the X and the O not on the same spot

This is the code

setscreen ("graphics:500;325,title: Tic-Tac-Toe,nobuttonbar")

%Variables
var squ : array 1 .. 3, 1 .. 3 of string
var turn, winx, winy, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, j, xs, ys, fill, start : int := 0
%Scorex and scorey is used to calculate the score each time one of them wins
var scorex, scorey : int := 0
%This asks if you want to restart the game if there is or no winner
var again : string
%This sets the font of all the texts shown
var font1 : int
font1 := Font.New ("serif:12")

%Turn is used to place the symbol in the location
%The alphabet is used to decide how which player is going to win
%Fill is used if there is a draw and there is no winner
%winx and winy is used to make the game restarts if there is a winner

Two things:
1). Using code tags by adding your code in between (code="turing")(/code) (but square brackets instead of parentheses).
2). You accidentally made two threads. But that's a mistake, so w/e.

Well, we can't really look through your code and isolate your problem for you. However, I suggest that you have a flag to mark when a square has an 'X' or an 'O' placed on it to avoid another person going on the same square.

sorry, i'm new in turing. Can you be more specific that even an idiot like me can understand?
I still don't get what i should put in my program

Post subject:  Re: Help tic-tac-toe input same same coordinate
You need a boolean variable (ture or false values) that represents each square.
An array would be best.
So the declaration line would be something like:
Turing:

var square_full : array 1 .. 9 of boolean


Then, when a symbol is drawn in a square, you set the corresponding boolean variable to full, and you only let the user select a square that is not already full.
So you would do something like this:

Turing:

loop
get turn
exit when not sqaure_full (turn)
put "That square has already been chosen"
end loop


This loop will get turn, and then if the square isn't been used, it will exit the loop and go to the drawing part.
If the square is being used, it will not exit, but will tell you that the square has been chosen already, and it will make you choose again.

Also, instead of drawing every single X and O with it's own exact co-ordiantes, I would recommend making the co-ordinates relative to a certain point (such as the bottom of the current square).
This will allow you to only have one draw procedure, and just change the points that it is being drawn relative to.
If you don't know how to do this, I would be happy to explain it.

thanks for your help
can you explain that last part, i'm a bit confused on what i should change for my code?

oh ya, where do i put the code you gave me?
loop
get turn
exit when not sqaure_full (turn)
put "That square has already been chosen"
end loop

See, it doesn't work that way. We don't give you code so that you can merely paste it onto your program. We give you ideas on how to better your code and you actually program it in.

Basically, everytime a person wants to make a move, check to make sure that no piece has previously been placed there. It seems like you have the variables a, b, c, ... to store whether a piece has been played there or not (i.e. 1 or 0). So when getting the input, just make sure that the position where the player is placing a move is a '0' and not a '1' (i.e. make sure that it is the first time someone is making a move).

Put that code where you currently have the get statement for turn (where they type what square they want.

...well, Cezna, just make sure you lead the person to the right direction by helping them understand how it all works. When one merely copies code and tries to understand how that works, it doesn't help them as much. But yeah, we are straying a bit offtopic...make sure you know that this is still about why1234's question.

Thanks for the help. I was able to finish and fix this problem with boolean. However, Since i haven't looked at it for some time, i forgot what some of the variables do. =(
Can someone tell me what does the variable winx, and winy do?
