An implementation of Tic Tac Toe to serve as a demo of Elixir's Agent abstraction.
Accompanies a blog post on Elixir's Agent module.
After cloning the repo and cd'ing into the appropriate directory, do this:
mix deps.get
mix test
mix escript.buildYou don't have to run the tests of course, I added that line just in case you want to verify the app.
The target escript.build produces an executable escript. An escript can be run on any machine that has Erlang installed.
The implementation is based on what is specified in the Tic Tac Toe Application Kata that you can find here.
It diverges from the aforementioned Kata in one aspect.
The display and expected input is not zero-based as I think that it's easier for humans to work with a one-based notation. Other than that, the implementation behaves as described at the ccd-school site. These inputs are understood: 'exit', 'new' and moves such as 'c1', 'a2' etc. Inputs are not case sensitive.
In order to play, what you need to do after a hopefully successful build is this:
./tictactoeEnjoy playing and learning about Elixir.
And as always: Constructive feedback is most welcome :)
