This week's code challenge focused on building a Tic-tac-toe game, featuring an AI opponent designed to either win, block the player, or make strategic moves based on position values. The game uses a class to maintain state, with board positions mapped to a keypad layout, and employs a decorator to enhance code clarity. The AI's decision-making process involves checking for possible wins or blocks before selecting the best available move. The solution emphasizes maintainability by dividing functionalities into multiple methods and provides a learning opportunity through community contributions and alternative solutions. The week's challenge sets the stage for next week's task, which will involve data analysis on a movie dataset.
