tic-tac-toe game implementaion using a simple GUI and AI for computer moves

Model (GameModel.java)

• Manages game state and logic.
  • game board
  • current player
  • game status
  • move validity
• Independent of user interface. Doesn't contain logic related to how game state is displayed or how input is received.

View (GameView.java)

• Handles graphics of game. Includes:
  • Game window
  • Game board buttons
  • Satus labels
• Designed to display game state to user. Views reads from the model to present current game status without modifying model directly.
• Informs controller about user actions (such as button clicks)

Controller (GameController.java)

• Mediator between model and view.
• Processes user input from view, updates model, updates view to reflect new state
• Intializes the game by creating instances of both model and view.
• updates game state based on user interactions, changes view accordingly

Computer Move AI

• Uses minimax algorithm to explore all possible game outcomes from different move combinations
• 20% of the time it will not use the minimax algorithm to determine the best move and will instead make a random move
