TicTacToe Game in VB.NET
TicTacToe is a demonstration of the AI game playing minimax
algorithm. The game plays out every possible combination of moves from each
position and consequently is unbeatable. This example uses .NET Beta 2 and was
written using a text editor.
The source code uses a modified Model-View-Controller design pattern. In
essence the core of the game (model) has a clean API and is only loosely coupled
to GUI/ controlling logic. I have two different implementations of the utility
function, one using Regular Expressions (.NET is a superset of Perl 5
functionality). To run the game using Regular Expressions uncomment the
preprocessing directive '#define RegExp'.
This code is fun and should be useful to anyone considering a degree in
AI.
