tictactoexxl 1.0.1

A tic-tac-toe game with xxl fun

TicTacToeXXL

TicTacToeXXL is a tic-tac-toe game with xxl fun. The rules are the same, but there are not fixed elements – you can create a tic-tac-toe game with multiple players on a n*m grid and the first player who strikes ‘x’ movements in a row (vertical/horizontal/diagonal) wins the game. Simple as playing a tic-tac-toe game but with xxl fun.

Skills Proof / Cheat Style

TicTacToeXXL has been created to be applied as a proof of my personal Python development practices/knowledge and prove myself to create/distribute a Python package from scratch.

If you need to create a tic-tac-toe game to submit it on a job appliance, bachelor course, university master, however, please do not cheat, and leave any temptation to read / copy tictactoexxl code. It will not be the way. Be honest, do not cheat yourself and the code reviewer who might face your truth.
