Thread: Need some help with a basic tic tac toe game

Out of boredom one day I decided to see how much programming I forgot since I finished high school (it was alot)

I plugged this out without help but since I don't want to leave it as 1's and 2's I am trying to convert to x, o's but I can't remember anything except int's

My main problem is int's and char's interacting

The following code works fine in Linux but is based on 1's and 2's

int ch, pl, tn, wn,
aa, ab, ac,
ba, bb, bc,
ca, cb, cc;

main()
{
start:;

system("clear");
printf("\n %d | %d | %d",aa,ab,ac);
printf("\n-----------");
printf("\n %d | %d | %d",ba,bb,bc);
printf("\n-----------");
printf("\n %d | %d | %d",ca,cb,cc);

if (aa==pl && ab==pl && ac==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (ba==pl && bb==pl && bc==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (ca==pl && cb==pl && cc==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (aa==pl && ba==pl && ca==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (ab==pl && bb==pl && cb==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (ac==pl && bc==pl && cc==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (aa==pl && bb==pl && cc==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (ac==pl && bb==pl && ca==pl) { wn=pl; }
if (wn >= 1) { printf("\n\nPlayer %d wins.\n\n",pl); goto end; }

if (pl == 2) { pl=0; }
pl=pl+1;
tn=tn+1;

if (tn == 10) { printf("\n\nCat's Game\n\n"); goto end; }

printf("\n\nPlayer %d what is your move? ",pl);
scanf("%d",&ch);
switch (ch)
{
case 1: { aa=pl; goto start; }
case 2: { ab=pl; goto start; }
case 3: { ac=pl; goto start; }
case 4: { ba=pl; goto start; }
case 5: { bb=pl; goto start; }
case 6: { bc=pl; goto start; }
case 7: { ca=pl; goto start; }
case 8: { cb=pl; goto start; }
case 9: { cc=pl; goto start; }
case 0: { goto end; }
default: { goto start; }
}
end:;
}

Here is my current try at converting it what ever is commented is not converted yet
