Tic Tac Toe

This program creates a tic tac toe game that allows two players to play against each other. It initializes the game board as a 3x3 array, displays the board and allows players to take turns entering their moves by number. After each move it checks if there is a winner by checking for 3 in a row. It prompts players for their names and symbols and displays the board and messages throughout the game.
