This programming assignment is to design a Tic-Tac-Toe game in Java. A Tic-Tac-Toe wiki article can be found at  Tic-Tac-Toe Wiki which describes how to play the game in details. Tic-Tac-Toe is a board game of two players on a board of 3 x 3 intersections. The players alternate in marking the spaces using X for player 1 and O for player 2. The player who has marked three spaces in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row wins the game.

Let us assume the following:

1. Two players: Player 1 using X and Player 2 using O, each unmarked space is marked with a "-" dash.
2. Player 1 always makes the first mark on the board,
3. The spaces are labeled from the left top corner as (0, 0) and bottom right corner as (2, 2),
4. A player marks a space by entering the label of the space, row_# column_# , separated with a single space.

Graphical user interface is not required for this assignment. You may choose your own appropriate user interface. A text-based display is acceptable. For example, if Player 1 and Player 2 have entered the following:

2 1             // Player 1
0 1             // Player 2
1 1             // Player 1

the board would be printed like the following:

 012
0-O-
1-X-
2-X-

The server stops the game and displays the winner when a winning situation is determined by the server. It is optional to highlight the winning three marked spaces in some fashion, e.g., in bold face or different color.
