TicTacToe Game

A simple implementation of the Tic Tac Toe game in Python.

Rules of the Game

Tic Tac Toe is a classic game played on a 3x3 grid. Two players take turns placing their markers (X or O) on the board, aiming to get three of their marks in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) before the opponent does. If all the positions on the board are filled and no player has won, the game ends in a tie.

How to Play

1. Run the play_tic_tac_toe() function in a Python environment.
2. Player 1 will be prompted to choose either X or O.
3. The players will take turns entering their positions on the board, ranging from 1 to 9. The board is displayed after each move.
4. The game continues until one player wins or the board is full.
5. After the game ends, players are given the option to play again.
