After learning the basics of C++, it’s a great idea to complete at least one hands-on project where you can build something from scratch using C++. This course offers the opportunity to build the basic but classic Tic-Tac-Toe game, command-line style.

You’ll begin the course by looking at the end product and then building the game step-by-step, adding one tiny feature in each lesson. This way, you’ll add one or two helper functions to the codebase and then test them individually in the main controller function. Because of this modular approach, you’ll finish coding the game efficiently and professionally.

By the end of the course, you’ll have one complete hands-on project in C++ added to your profile.

Tic-Tac-Toe with C++

We have learned how to create a basic Tic-Tac-Toe game. Now, the next step is to see how we can add upgrades.

# How to upgrade this game


Here are a few ideas:

- We can make the computer move in a more optimal manner, i.e, it generates moves that maximizes its chances of winning and minimizing its chances of losing. 

- Upgrade the board from a $3 \times 3$ board to a $4 \times 4$ board.


Discuss how you can upgrade the game’s functionalities even further.
