play.msweepeR: Starts or resumes a msweepeR game session

In pablorm296/msweepeR: A Text Based Minesweeper Game for R (and Geeky R Users)

Description

Once you started a msweepeR game session, by assigning it to a new object x <- msweepeR(), you can start playing by using this method (play.msweepeR). See details for more info on how to play msweepeR.

Usage

play.msweepeR(x)

Arguments

x	A msweepeR session (an R object of class msweepeR).

Details

Once you started a msweepeR session, by assigning it to a new object x <- msweepeR(), you can start playing by using this method (play.msweepeR(x)). This method will first print basic info about the game session and the game board (contained in the msweepeR object), and then it will draw the game board in the output console. After that, you'll be asked to make a move. As in any other minsweeper game, you can either open a tile to reveal its content, or you can put a flag on top of a tile.

To make a move you have to use a special msweepeR command syntax:

action @ row_num, col_num.

Where action is either 'open' or 'flag', and row_num, col_num correspond to the coordinates of the desired tile in the game board. Imagine that the game board is a matrix, and each tile is an element within such matrix; therefore, each tile has an row, col coordinate (like any other matrix in R). You'll see the row and column numbers printed in the first column and first row of the board respectively.

For example, if you want to open tile [1,1], you'll have to type: open @ 1,1

If you want to put a flag on tile [3,7], you'll have to type: flag @ 3,7

Once you introduced a valid command, it will be parsed and evaluated. If you opened an empty tile, or you placed a flag, the board will be printed again in the console and you'll be asked again what's your desired move. If you have flaged all mined tiles, you'll win. However, if you open a mined tile, you'll loose.

If you type an invalid command, a warning will be printed, and you'll be asked again to type a valid command.
