Some Program Notes
This was my first Visual C++ program!. Is is possible to win on the 2nd skill level, but you can't win more than about 1 in 5 times. It was very interesting to see how a very(and I mean very) basic AI could play a good game. Basicly the AI of the 2nd skill level looks at three options.
1. Look for a winning move
2. Look for a losing move
3. Play a random move
Thats it. This is called a 1 deep AI routine because it only looks 1 move ahead. Not vey smart, but amazing how hard it is to beat. Try it!
