Anyway, I would suggest you familiarize yourself with arrays before continuing tic-tac-toe. Be sure to read the link to know more about arrays (later), because I'm sure your book won't mention std::array.

I will look at the link and try to work this out.

1) If a user inputs a 4
2) int boardPos4 is updated to a circle (which is enum value 2);
3) If I now std::cout boardPos4 to show a circle on the board, it wont, it'll show a number 2 (the value of the enum)

That's how I see it. I don't know why this concept is so difficult for me, everything else was going ok so far!
