Re: Tic Tac Toe??!!!

Hello guys

I found a code on the internet written in C language , but there are few things I don't understand well , and I need your help

I don't understand the minimax function, an dI don't understand why using (-who) for example..what does ( _ ) mean??

I aslo don't understand the compmove function

in the output function..what is [4*i][8*j+6]=i*3+j+49 and [4*i+1][8*j+3]='X' and [4*i+1][8*j+3]='O'???

Besids can you please tell me..how many levels is this game..I mean minmax uses ply depth ..how many level does the computer in this code use to decide a mov??

how to know it?

i'm so sorry..i know they are too much questions..but I need your help..

Here is the functions i don't get :

/
