Connect 4 Connect Four is a two player game which takes place on a 7x6 rectangular board placed vertically between them. One player has 21 yellow men and the other 21 red men. Each player can drop a man at the top of the board in one of the seven columns; the man falls down and fills the lower unoccupied square. A player cannot drop a man in a certain column if it's already full (i.e. it already contains six men). The object of the game is to connect four men vertically, horizontally or diagonally. If the board is filled and no one has aligned four men then the game is drawn (i.e. after 42 moves if no one wins). The making of the Connect Four: It all started when I wanted to familiarize myself with the STL. I decided to implement the Minimax with Alpha-Beta cutoff algorithm and make use of the STL library in writing it. I then decided to implement Connect 4 for the sake of testing the algorithm I implemented. First it was a text based Connect 4, then after I completed testing the algorithm I started adding an interface and improving the quality of the the computer moves.
