C++ Tic Tac Toe Game

I am so confused. I am trying to create a tic tac toe game using windows c++ visual. So far I was doing good until I kept getting errors. I tried looking for help but none of the answers seemed right. This is my practice problem.

1. Implement displayBoard to display Tic Tac Toe board.

2. Prompt User for a box on the board to select, i.e. a number between 1 and 9 with 1 being the upper left corner.

   use cin.get(box) to get the box number and isdigit to verify it is a number; 1 | 2 | 3 4 | 5 | 6 7 | 8 | 9 If the box is available put the appropriate X or O in there and switch players, i.e. X becomes O and vice versa. If the box is NOT available warn the user and get another box until they select a valid open box.

3. After all spots have been select Display "Gam开发者_开发百科e Over!";

4. Write a main function to use the TicTacToe class and test all of the above functionality.

.

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;


class TicTacToe {
public:
    void displayBoard();
    void getMove();
    void playGame();
private:
    char board[9];
    char player; // Switch after each move.
};

int main ()
{
    TicTacToe ttt;

    // you need to do the following in a loop 9 times
    ttt.playGame();
}

void TicTacToe::playGame()
{
    getMove();
    // Your implementation here...
}

void TicTacToe::displayBoard()
{
    // Your implementation here...
}

void TicTacToe::getMove()
{
    cout << "Enter Box: ";
    char c;
    cin.get(c);
    if (c > '9' || c < '0')
        // Error message here.

    int number = c - '0';

    cout << "your number is " << number;
    // Your implementation here...
}

---

you need a statement to go after the if

even if its just a ;

but maybe you want

if (c > '9' || c < '0')
        cout << "Not a Number!";

---

Ok, so the issue here is the "if" statement. The problem is that you haven't closed the if statement. So what the compiler sees is

cout << "Enter box: ";
char c;
cin.get(c);

if(c > '9' || c < '0')
{
    //Compiler thinks that it should only convert the character
    //to a number if you got the *wrong* number
    int number = c - '0';
}

//the integer number when out of scope in the if statement. So now it doesn't exist
//which means you will get a "variable not declared" error
cout << "your number is " << number;

When you create an if statement and you don't put braces around the block of code it should execute, then the next line after the if statement becomes the conditional statement. What you need to do is close the if statement. simply adding a semicolon is sufficient:

if (c > '9' || c < '0');

but it means you don't handle the error, which is pretty bad, so at least put an error message in the if statement to tell the user that they've made a mistake.
