Generate a list of all unique Tic Tac Toe boards
There are 9 positions and an alphabet with 3 letters (X, O, empty). Total number of possible combinations is 3^9 = 19683.
for(int i = 0; i < 19683; ++i)
{
int c = i;
for (int j = 0; j < 9; ++j)
{
cout << (c % 3) << " ";
c /= 3;
}
cout << endl;
}
Since you want board layouts, there's only a small number of them (19683).
You can just brute-force generate all of these. Each box only has 3 possibilities. And there are 9 boxes, just run through all of them.
EDIT:
int c = 0;
while (c < 262144){
bool valid = (c & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 2) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 4) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 6) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 8) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 10) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 12) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 14) & 3) < 3;
valid &= ((c >> 16) & 3) < 3;
if (valid){
int i = c;
int j = 0;
while (j < 9){
cout << (i & 3) << " ";
i >>= 2;
j++;
}
cout << endl;
}
c++;
}
This will print out all 19,683 board layouts. I'm not sure what format you want, but it should be fairly easy to extract that from the output.
