i know i said in my last post that i had a easier way to make the tic tac toe than the way we did but the thing is it wouldnt have been nearly as pretty or user friendly and like ive stated in past posts, i enjoy the long labs and the feeling you get when you complete them. im glad we got to do another long lab, especially a game because its really nice to get to use your product once you're done.

i liked making the short version of tic tac toe, and i think i could have modified it to make a much easier version of tic tac toe than the long version that would have worked just as well. so first to make the user be able to choose where he goes you'd as him if he wants the put his peice in the top right, top middle, top left, etc. and then put an peice coresponding to which play that is(X or O) in the matrix, then have a draw function that outputs the board in it's current state by going through the matrix and seeing where there are pieces and then have something to check and see if anyone has won like was in the short lab and if someone has, display that on the board too. it's really pretty simple and could all be done in just two classes.

i guess we were still doing pong at this point but regardless, it was pretty cool. I know i already said this but i like the long labs better than the short part because i like seeing all of it come together and being able to know that it is all my work. the short labs kind of do that but not as much, because i dont put as much time into them.

i imagine this should have something to do with pong. i enjoyed doing pong because at the end i knew that i had created all the things that made it work, i put the whole thing together, well atleast for the most part, there were some bits given at first. and it didnt take me that long either. it really helped me understand what the inheritance stuff is used for and when it is useful. i got a great sense of acomplishment in completeing it and i liked that.

Uhh i dont remember what we were doing this far back but we might have been doing inheritence or something like that. i didnt really got inheritance but not interfaces so much, they dont really make sense to me. inheritance is where one class is can use stuff from another class, given that the first class extends the second one, but if you asked me what interfaces were i wouldnt have a clue. that's probably a problem.......
