# Drop4
A simple implementation of the game Puissance 4, written in C.
Why ? Because I got bored on friday night.
## Implementation details
The board is represented as a 2D array of integers.
The last played piece is stored in the `last_row` and `last_col` variables, allowing us to efficiently check for a win by examining lines extending from that position in 4 directions (horizontal, vertical, and both diagonals).
Game is a struct with the board, the current player, and the last played piece.
What else... I guess input handling is prettty robust, I check most of the possible edge cases.
## Rules
The game is played on a 6x7 grid.
The players take turns dropping their pieces into the grid.
The first player to get 4 pieces in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) wins.
## How to play
Just compile and run the program.
```bash
make
./drop4
```
