Tic Tac Toe Not Working

[Zainyorkshireman]

Good morning all. I have manually copied the below code from the book 'Beginning C++ Through Game Programming' as i could not seem to find it online using the link given. There seems to be a few errors in the code which i am unable to fix, my goal was to write up the code, run it and see what the output looks like then go through the code and figure out what everything does and how it's been put together. Would anyone be willing to assist in rectifying these errors so i can get the code to run.

Regarding the errors, these lines are looking to be problematic

return NO_ONE;

char human = opponent(computer);

while (!found && move < board.size())

return move;

Hi

Apologies for the poor format i have rectified that and will use proper formatting going forward. I have pointed out the 4 lines of code which seem to be the problem, there are many error messages however, if need be i will write them all out but there looks to be around 20 :-/

[salem c]

Well it looks like the brace at line 153 is misplaced, because there's a lot of code following it which isn't inside a function.

Hi

I have managed to find the entire code through another website which runs so i'll start going through it, thanks
