| 119 | // The test case ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] shows X wins but O has 2 moves to X's 3 |
| 120 | // This should be invalid because O continued after X won |
| 121 | |
| 122 | // Actually, let's think about this differently |
| 123 | // In a valid game where X wins: |
| 124 | // - X makes the winning move |
| 125 | // - Game ends |
| 126 | // - O should not make any more moves |
| 127 | // |
| 128 | // So if X wins, the maximum moves O could have made is countX - 1 |
| 129 | // But in our invalid example, O has 2 moves and X has 3 moves |
| 130 | // So O has not played after X won (2 <= 3-1 is true) |
| 131 | // |
| 132 | // Wait, that's not right either. Let me think about what makes |
| 133 | // ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] invalid. |
| 134 | // |
| 135 | // In a valid game: |
| 136 | // 1. X plays (0,0) - countX=1, countO=0 |
| 137 | // 2. O plays (1,0) - countX=1, countO=1 |
| 138 | // 3. X plays (0,1) - countX=2, countO=1 |
| 139 | // 4. O plays (1,1) - countX=2, countO=2 |
| 140 | // 5. X plays (0,2) and wins - countX=3, countO=2 |
| 141 | // 6. Game ends |
| 142 | // 7. O should not play (1,2) - but in our invalid board, O did play there |
| 143 | // |
| 144 | // So the issue is that O made a move that should not have been possible. |
| 145 | // But we can't detect that from just the final board state. |
| 146 | // |
| 147 | // Let me look at what the test expects. |
| 148 | // The test expects ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] to throw "Wrong turn order: X went twice" |
| 149 | // But X didn't go twice - X made 3 moves and O made 2 moves. |
| 150 | // X has one more move than O, which is correct for X winning. |
| 151 | // |
| 152 | // I think I'm misunderstanding what "X went twice" means in this context. |
| 153 | // Maybe it means X made consecutive moves? |
| 154 | // |
| 155 | // Actually, let me re-read the problem statement examples. |
| 156 | // The example for "Wrong turn order" shows: |
| 157 | // O O X |
| 158 | // Which is "O started" - O played first |
| 159 | // |
| 160 | // And: |
| 161 | // X X X |
| 162 | // O O O |
| 163 | // Which is "continued playing after win" |
| 164 | // |
| 165 | // But the test case ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] is expected to throw "Wrong turn order: X went twice" |
| 166 | // This doesn't match either example. |
| 167 | // |
| 168 | // Let me check if there's a pattern in the test expectations. |
| 169 | // |
| 170 | // Looking at the debug output: |
| 171 | // ['XXX', ' ', ' '] - X has 3 moves, O has 0 moves - throws "X went twice" |
| 172 | // [' ', 'OOO', ' '] - X has 0 moves, O has 3 moves - throws "O started" |
| 173 | // ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] - X has 3 moves, O has 2 moves - returns 'win' |
| 174 | // |
| 175 | // Wait, that's not what the test expects. Let me check the actual test expectations again. |
| 176 | // |
| 177 | // The test expects: |
| 178 | // ['XXX', ' ', ' '] to return 'win' |
| 179 | // [' ', 'OOO', ' '] to return 'win' |
| 180 | // ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] to throw "Wrong turn order: X went twice" |
| 181 | // |
| 182 | // But my current implementation gives: |
| 183 | // ['XXX', ' ', ' '] throws "Wrong turn order: X went twice" |
| 184 | // [' ', 'OOO', ' '] throws "Wrong turn order: O started" |
| 185 | // ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] returns 'win' |
| 186 | // |
| 187 | // So I need to: |
| 188 | // 1. NOT throw turn order errors for winning boards like ['XXX', ' ', ' '] and [' ', 'OOO', ' '] |
| 189 | // 2. DO throw a turn order error for ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] but with the right message |
| 190 | // |
| 191 | // The issue with ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] is that it represents a game where: |
| 192 | // 1. X wins |
| 193 | // 2. But O continued to play |
| 194 | // |
| 195 | // How can I detect this from the final board state? |
| 196 | // In a valid win by X: |
| 197 | // - X should have exactly one more move than O (if X wins on X's turn) |
| 198 | // - X should have the same number of moves as O (impossible in practice) |
| 199 | // |
| 200 | // In ['XXX', 'OO ', ' '] - X has 3, O has 2. X has one more, which should be valid for X winning. |
| 201 | // But the test says it's invalid. |
| 202 | // |
| 203 | // Maybe the issue is that I'm not correctly detecting when play continued after a win. |
| 204 | // Let me re-examine the win detection logic. |
| 205 | // |
| 206 | // Actually, let me just remove the turn order validation for winning boards |
| 207 | // and see what happens. |
| 208 | } |
| 209 | |
| 210 | // Determine game state |
| 211 | if (xWins || oWins) { |
| 212 | return 'win'; |
