Coding Challenge - Tic-Tac-Toe

Today we're going to test and improve our coding skills by creating a simple game of Tic-Tac-Toe in Python.

Set up your Environment

Fork this repository, clone it on your machine and create a new environment inside the folder. Don't forget to activate it for the assignment.

macOS type the following commands :

• Install the virtual environment and the required packages by following commands:

  pyenv local 3.11.3
  python -m venv .venv
  source .venv/bin/activate
  pip install --upgrade pip

WindowsOS type the following commands :

• Install the virtual environment and the required packages by following commands.

  For PowerShell CLI :

  pyenv local 3.11.3
  python -m venv .venv
  .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
  pip install --upgrade pip

  For Git-Bash CLI :

  pyenv local 3.11.3
  python -m venv .venv
  source .venv/Scripts/activate
  pip install --upgrade pip
  

  Note: If you encounter an error when trying to run pip install --upgrade pip, try using the following command:

  python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip

Task

Write your own Tic-Tac-Toe game. The assignment file contains a description on how the game should work. It may also help you to create a good structure for your code.

Before you start, have a look at the files program_design.md and Intro_to_pseudocode.md. The techniques described there could be useful for this task.

Minimal coding practices to keep in mind!

• Functions should have explicit names.
• Functions should have docstrings explaining how to call them
• Functions should be between 4-10 lines of code long

Hints

In the tic_tac_toe.py file you will find the special if-statement if __name__ == '__main__': if you want to know more about it have a look into the Example folder.
