Question

I am trying to print this array of 9 elements out in 3 lines.

I want to print it out in 3 lines with 3 rows such as .

xxx
xxx
xxx

But i am not sure how to tackle that.

void ticTacToeBoard ()
{
    for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
    {
        cout << ticTacBoard[i] << " ";
    }
}

Answer 1

I like to be verbose with my loops, so try this:

void ticTacToeBoard ()
{
    for (int y = 0; y < 3; y++)
    {
        for (int x = 0; i < 3; x++)
        {
            cout << ticTacBoard[3 * y + x] << " ";
        }

        cout << endl;
    }
}

Basically, I iterate over your board in rows (y), and then in columns (x), allowing me to print each cell and control the flow.

I just print a newline (endl) after each row.
