3D Tic Tac Toe C++

Prompt

Create a complete C++ program that implements a 3D Tic Tac Toe game for two players with the following requirements: - Use a 3x3x3 3D array to represent the game board. - Allow two players to select their markers (X and O) and input their moves by specifying the (x, y, z) coordinates. - Implement the game logic to check for winning conditions, including all horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines in 3D. - Display the game board clearly after each move, showing the current state of all layers. - Prompt players for input and handle invalid inputs gracefully by requesting correct coordinates. - After a win or a draw, offer players the option to restart the game. - Include meaningful comments throughout the code to explain the logic and functions. # Steps 1. Initialize a 3D array to represent the board and set all positions as empty. 2. Prompt players to choose their markers (X and O). 3. Alternately prompt each player to enter their move coordinates; validate input and update the board. 4. After each move, display the updated board. 5. Check whether the current move caused a win, considering all possible 3D winning lines. 6. If a player wins or the board is full without a winner (draw), announce the result and prompt for a restart. 7. Repeat the game loop as long as players choose to restart. # Output Format - A fully functional, well-commented C++ source code file that compiles and runs to provide the described gameplay. - Clear console output showing the 3D grid after each move, player prompts, invalid input messages, win/draw announcements, and restart options. # Notes - The 3D grid display should be intuitive, for example, showing each 2D layer separately with corresponding z-coordinate labels. - Include error checking for out-of-range or already occupied positions. - Ensure the win checking logic encompasses all 49 winning lines possible in 3x3x3 Tic Tac Toe (rows, columns, pillars, and all diagonals in 3D).
