Beginner Tic Tac Toe help
Hey people, I've just started messing around with c++.
I made this Tic Tac Toe game but I felt there was too much if else going on.
Can anyone point out how i could simplify this.
I'm wondering if
-I can do the same without using so many if else
-Can you point me towards a professional Tic Tac Toe code
-I tried using a class but could not acces the multidimensional array from the class so i gave that up and did it all on the main cpp.
Thanks for any help.
First time post so please excuse any weirdness if it comes out wrong.
ok its in two parts cuz it is over the max.

You could use Switch statement, instead of using all those functions try one, if you like I can get my code and show you what I mean.
| -I can do the same without using so many if else |
You can and probably should.
| -Can you point me towards a professional Tic Tac Toe code |
I'm not sure there can be such a thing as a 'professional tic-tac-toe code', however, I would suggest a general design for n size tic-tac-toe board with x size win conditions would be a great way to do this. i.e. You can take your code and very easily modify it (or even without modification) run any size (within reason) board with any amount in a row for a win condition.
| -I tried using a class but could not access the multidimensional array from the class so i gave that up and did it all on the main cpp. |
You might want to read about passing parameters around functions: http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/functions/
Although it's hard to say exactly what you should be reading with just that short sentence explaining your problem.
Thanks guys.
So let me explain a little what i was trying to accomplish with this program.
I wanted to put all the functions in a class and just call them but I couldn't find a way to make the board global to the class and the main. I'm guessing this is because, like Mats said, i haven't locked down passing parameters around functions.
Basically what a I did now was how to create an object to call a function from the class. So
Is there a way to call a variable from the main.cpp to a class.cpp?
What was really bothering me while writing this though was that I was using so many if else statements, but I couldn't think of any other way. I was trying to think of a way to use more switch statements but the way I thought would still have a large amount of if else statements in each case.
Yea I'm a noob. This isn't for class or nothing like that just trying to solve these puzzles.
Once again, Thanks for your time and responses

That is a massive amount of functions. I've written mine without function/arrays/pointers and it had way less lines.
