Thread: nedd help using netBeans to do my assignment

Create a Tic Tac Toe game. In this game, two players alternate placing Xs and Os
into a grid until one player has three matching symbols in a row, either horizontally,
vertically, or diagonally. Create a game in which the user is presented with a threeby-
three grid containing the digits 1 through 9. When the user chooses a position by
typing a number, place an X in the appropriate spot. Generate a random number for
the position where the computer will place an O. Do not allow the player or the
computer to place a symbol where one has already been placed. Figure 9-26 shows
the first four windows in a typical game. When either the player or computer has
three symbols in a row, declare a winner; if all positions have been exhausted and no
one has three symbols in a row, declare a tie. Save the game as TicTacToe.java.

You are required to develop this game using NETBEANS as the interface.

this.....

class TicTacToe
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{
//System.out.println("Welcome! Tic-Tac-Toe is a two player game.");
//System.out.println("Enter player one's name: ");

TicTacToeBoard game = new TicTacToeBoard();
System.out.println(game.toString());

//int count = 0;


game.move('x', 1, 3);
// game.move('o', 1, 1);

/* while (game.gameWon() !true || count != 9)
{
System.out.print(game.move());
System.out.print(game.isEmpty());
}*/
}
}This is where all the methods are......

class TicTacToeBoard
{
private char [][] board = new char[3][3];

// This a new constructor that creates a tic-tac-toe board
public TicTacToeBoard()
{

{
//System.out.println("| ");
board[rows][columns] = ' ';
//System.out.println(" |\n" );
}
}
}

// creates a string form of the tic-tac-toe board and allows the user
// to access it during the game.
public String toString()
{
String b = "";

// creates a vertical bar at the beginning and the end of each row
for (int rows = 0; rows < board.length; rows++)
{

// adds a space for each row and column character in tic-tac-toe board.
for (int columns = 0; columns < board[rows].length; columns++)
{

}

}

}

String move(char x, int rows, int columns)
{
String b = "";

// creates a vertical bar at the beginning and the end of each row
for (int r = 0; r < board.length; r++)
{
b += "| ";

for (int c = 0; c < board[r].length; c++)
{
b += board[r][c] + " "; //prints 3 spaces on each line.
// prints string character from user input if row and column not equal to zero
if (board[rows - 1][columns - 1] >= 0 && board[rows - 1][columns - 1] <= 2 )
{
board[rows - 1][columns - 1] = x;// prints character in the specified index from user input
b += board[rows - 1][columns - 1];// prints out the board and the new character in specified space.
}
else if (board[rows - 1][columns - 1] < 0) // makes user pick another choice
return "ILLEGAL MOVE, TRY AGAIN!";
// adds a space for each row and column character in tic-tac-toe board.
}

}
return b; // prints the tic-tac-toe board to be accessed by the user.

}

// checks if a space character is empty

else // makes user pick another row and column if space character is not empty

}
// checks if game is won
public boolean gameWon(int row, int col)
{

return true;
else if ((board[2][0] != board[1][1]) && (board[2][0] != board[0][2]))
return false;

if ((board[2][2] == board[1][1])&& (board[2][2] == board[0][0]))
return true;
else if ((board[2][2] != board[1][1])&& (board[2][2] != board[0][0]))
return false;

else
return false;
}
}Here is the template for the whole thing!!!!!

class TicTacToe
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
TicTacToeBoard b = new TicTacToeBoard();

while (game not over)
{
swtich player
increment turn counter

until user enters a valid move
{
prompt for move
}

make move
b.makeMove (player, row, col);

print board
System.out.println(b);
}

print outcome
}
}


class TicTacToeBoard
{
private char [][] board = ...;

public TicTacToeBoard()
{
initialize board with spaces
}

public void makeMove (char c, int row, int col)
{
store symbol in specified position
}

public boolean isEmpty(int row, int col)
{
return true if square is unfilled
}

public boolean gameWon()
{
check board for a win
}

public String toString ()
{
return String representation of board
}

}

my problem is generating numbers randomly and designing GUI

here is a screen shot of this assignment.....java.jpg

so i have to code a tic toe game as follows (as shown in screenshot) using netbeans help me im lost

We can't work with screenshots of code, assignments, or errors. Screenshots are good for graphics and not for much else.

Instead, copy and paste your code between code tags, right here in your next post. Don't go back and correct, change, or add code to an earlier post. That just confuses everybody AND the changes will not be obvious so that no one will know that updates were made.

We also can't help someone with vague problems like, "I'm lost." Ask specific questions, post errors that you don't understand (copied and pasted between code tags, just like your code), and tell us specifically what you need/want help with (nicely, of course.)

Good luck.

Please do not start multiple threads with the same question.
