Tic-tac-toe (American English), noughts and crosses (Commonwealth English), or Xs and Os (Canadian or
Irish English) is a paper-and-pencil game for two players who take turns marking the spaces in a three-by-
three grid with X or O. The player who succeeds in placing three of their marks in a horizontal, vertical, or
diagonal row is the winner. It is a solved game, with a forced draw assuming best play from both players.
Tic-tac-toe is played on a three-by-three grid by two players, who alternately place the marks X and O in
one of the nine spaces in the grid.
Players soon discover that the best play from both parties leads to a draw. Hence, tic-tac-toe is often played
by young children who may not have discovered the optimal strategy.
