so I am a relatively new to coding. So I have to make a Gomoku game for a project. Gomoku is like tic-tac-toe, but have to get five in a row. Have been given certain restrictions such as a board size of 6x6 to 15x15. The use of at least one class. I have chosen to use arrays. I have created PlayerOne as an algorithm which bases its moves on PlayerOne's last move, and moves one random block away from it in next move. The second algorithm is random. For when checking for a win, my horizontal and vertical checkers seem to work but both my diagonal checkers are giving problems, with them saying that 3 consecutive blocks in a row diagonally is 5 in a row. I created my checkers separately, filling in each row manually to test, and the diagonal checkers were fine there, but they're not fine in the whole code. I'll share both the diagonal checkers up here, and then the whole code a little below so hopefully easier to read. Also quite a bit of it has cout statements as was trying to see where problems where earlier in the process. If anyone can see where the issue is occurring if could point out where, would be so appreciative.

CodePudding user response：
The problem could be that you don't set count1 and count2 inside the j-loop, but rather count on the variable being reset in the else statement. But if your d-loop ends before the else statement is executed ((i d < size) && (j - d < size) becomes false "prematurely") then the counter is not reset. Solution: move the zero-initialization to inside the j-loop.
Some improvements:
If lots of methods have the same parameter (such as int arr[15][15] and int size) then this could be the sign that these parameters should become members of the class.
It is possible to have only one checker function. Parameters of this function would be the direction of the search (int deltaX, int deltaY), and also the value that is being checked (1 or 2). Delta-values for all 8 directions are these:
(1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1), (-1, 1), (-1, 0), (-1, 1), (0, 1), (1, 1)
So, in your d-loop you would not add or subtract d to and from i and j, but you would always add deltaX to i, and deltaY to j.
Also, a bit advanced, but also fun. It is possible to arrange the code in such a way that you can have three types of games: human vs human, human vs computer, computer vs computer. You just for instance assign object of a class HumanPlayer to player 1 and object of a class ComputerPlayer to player 2. This would enable you to pick who plays first, and also have several algorithms battling it out. Both classes would have to be derived from the base class Player with some known methods (like 'move'), and some GameCoordinator would in a loop call this method 'move' on both objects, update the game state, and check if game has ended.
