The source code is essentially implemented using Object Oriented Programming, it contains four main Classes :
Position : represents one box of the game matrix.
Move : represents a palyable position for one player.
Player : represents a player who choose the moves.
Tree : represents the implemented class for the Artificial Intelligence (AI) including an heuristical methode choosing the best move.
Important : To excute this programme in processing you must install the audio library "minim", for that click on sketch in processing menu, then import Library => add Library and search for "minim" click install. Processing version : 3.4
You are ready to go!!
