help me plz

how do you make a computer opponent in tic tac toe?

[CodeMonkey2000]

you can have a whole bunch of if statements where if this square and this square is taken, then the opponent must go in this square to block me off.

ok i know the logic but how do i say that this square is blocked and for it to go to the other square?

[CodeMonkey2000]

mark it.
sqre 1 is taken, so sqre1=1 and squr2 is taken sor squr2=1
if sqre1 and sqre2 =1 then you have to go to sqre3 etc...

how do you know if the square is blocked or not for the human player? same approach.

[meidan]

ok i understand but i made my sqaures like this...

i made a box and said the coordinates so like

x >100 but <200 and y> 300 but <500 so how do i make this as a variable???

[CodeMonkey2000]

are you using ifs? because if you are, then you can have it within the if statement. eg. if x>30 and y<90 then squre x is taken.

perhaps you should figure out how to let a user play, before attempting to figure out how to have a computer play.
