Enduring Understandings[edit]

1. You can design and create software to solve problems

2. Computer scientists are a tribe who use specific tools, languages, and techniques to understand and solve problems (source).

3. If you want to know what is true, you must must know the depth of a thing

Major Topics of Study[edit]

import random
import sys
board = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
 
x_squares = []
o_squares = []
 
def update_board(grid_place):
        if grid_place in x_squares:
            token = "X"
        elif grid_place in o_squares:
            token = "O"
        else:
            token = str(grid_place)
        return token
