//TIC TAC TOE

//by R.K. Dupron

/*I present to you the greatest Tic Tac Toe of all times. The one and

only intelligent TTT. It'll bring tears to your eyes every time you

play it as it is better than you could ever imagine it to be.

I hope you enjoy this game. Good luck!*/

simple program, yet so smart...\n\nHi there! This is just a small game I coded. The
unique thing about this\nprogram is that it has artificial intelligence. That's
right, it can counter\nevery one of your moves and irritates you in its way to
victory. So do\nyou have the brains to match this brainless opponent? Let's find
out!\n\nGood luck!\n\n\n\n(PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE)";
