This connect 4 game is part of the Undergraduate Artificial Intelligence Society at the University of Alberta. It is licensed under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE.
This class contains the cells and the players. The interaction with the cells and players happens through this class. It has the following variables.
cells: a 2d array of integers representing the current game state (6x7)turn: dictates which player's turn it is- characters: a dictionary for characters corresponding to an integer (0-2)
player1: either human, randomBot or smartBotplayer2: either human, randomBot or smartBot
The class has the folllowing methods:
playGame() # plays the game until there is a win or draw
player's turn and their token character
displayBoard() # prints out a graphical representation of the board
changeTurn() # alternates the turn between 1 and 2
play() # takes as input the index of column and plays
checkWin() # checks for possible win in all directions (vertical, horizontal, and diagonal)
reset() # resets the board for a new game
The player classes all have a play() funciton. It takes the state of the board as input. This does not mean it is used by each different player class
This is the player object for a human. It does not use the state parameter for the play() function.
This is the player object for a computer that plays randomly. Uses the state parameter to get a list of possible moves. It then chooses randomly form that list.
This is the player object which uses a minimax algorithm to play.
Now Will gets the joy of documenting this part cuz I'm too lazy
