I am thinking of representing the board as list of dots and the stones as &#039;&#039;&#039;o&#039;&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;&#039;x&#039;&#039;&#039; as below and let the users to enter co-ordinate as &#039;&#039;&#039;(x-index, y-index)&#039;&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s<br /> a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> e . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> f . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> g . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> h . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> i . . . . . . . . o . . . . . . . . . .<br /> j . . . . . . . . . x . . . . . . . . .<br /> k . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> l . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> m . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> n . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> o . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> p . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> q . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> r . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> s . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /> --Gomoku Board-- <br /> <br /> The game will be available in both<br /> * Player1 vs Computer mode<br /> * Player1 vs Player2 mode</div>
