A Connect-4 game simulation renders a 6-by-7 ASCII board where two players, X and O, alternate placing pieces. The code demonstrates game state management with functions to drop a piece into a column and check for a four-in-a-row win condition across horizontal, vertical, and diagonal directions. After each move, a `printBoard` function outputs the current grid, initially showing empty slots as asterisks and updating to display player tokens. The implementation uses plain JavaScript with no external libraries, running via the `npm run start` command, and relies on standard array operations and nested loops for board traversal.

Connect4

Connect4 is an interactive, animated implementation of the classic Connect Four game, rendered with SVG, Canvas, and WebGL. Players take turns dropping colored discs into a 7x6 grid, with the interface built using Bootstrap-styled buttons for controls. The visualization uses multiple rendering technologies to draw the game board and pieces, with smooth animations for disc drops and win-state highlights. The source code is available as a gist by andresin87.

This visualization prints an alternating checkerboard pattern of spaces and hash symbols to the console, using standard JavaScript string concatenation and a nested `for` loop structure. The outer loop controls each row, while the inner loop builds the pattern by checking whether the row and column indices are even or odd. The code defines a fixed grid size of 8, generates each line into a string variable, and logs it with `console.log` before resetting the string for the next iteration. No external libraries are used; it relies solely on core JavaScript syntax and the console API.

This example demonstrates a C++ program that first simulates traversal and deletion of nodes in a singly linked list, printing the values as it moves and removes each node, and then reads a board from the file `board.txt` into a 2D vector of characters. The rendering shows the board as a grid, printing each cell with its indices and value, and then updates two specific positions to display a modified board. The code relies on standard C++ libraries such as `<iostream>`, `<fstream>`, and `<vector>`, with no external visualization APIs.

This example demonstrates a recursive Boggle word-finding algorithm that visualizes its search process by printing the game board to the console at each step. The code uses Ruby’s `Array#each_with_index` to scan the 4x4 letter grid, and recursively calls the `checker` method to trace valid adjacent letter paths for a given word. A `draw` function outputs the board state, marking previously visited cells with the string `"NO"` to show the algorithm’s backtracking. The visualization relies on terminal text output rather than graphical rendering, using only the `p` method for display.

This example visualizes a peg-based board game using C++ with standard libraries including iostream, fstream, vector, and unordered_map. It defines classes for pegs, board spots, and players, tracking movement through a pegMove structure with coordinates and begin/end flags. The code renders board positions as characters and supports multiple peg colors (blue, green, red, big blue) with distinct identifiers. It demonstrates object-oriented design for game state management, including move tracking, occupancy checks, and position resets, though it does not include any graphics or plotting libraries, appearing to be a logical simulation rather than a visual data display.

This interactive typing game tracks a player’s progress through a character-by-character comparison of their input against a target phrase. The interface uses React state management (`useState`) to store the snippet, the user’s typed text, and a game-state object that records victory status and start/end timestamps. The initial game state is defined as a constant with `victory: false` and null time fields, which are later updated as the game runs. The visualization does not include any graphical charting library; instead, it relies purely on React’s rendering and state logic to display the comparison and status.

Conway's Game of Life

The example implements Conway’s Game of Life on a 64×128 SVG grid, rendering each cell as a rectangle. It shows cellular automaton patterns evolving over time under the standard birth, survival, and death rules, with controls to select sample patterns, start or pause simulation, and edit the grid by clicking cells. The JavaScript uses D3 v3 to bind grid data to SVG rects and to update fills, while the simulation logic is implemented with bitwise operations on typed arrays for efficient neighbor counting and state transitions. Predefined patterns, such as “Planes” and “Symm 4,” are included in a separate data file.

With chessboard

This example visualizes the first K steps of chess games from a CSV dataset, showing the frequency of different move sequences. It features an interactive chessboard where users can drag and drop pieces, with legal moves highlighted in grey and invalid moves snapping back. The board is implemented using the chessboard.js library combined with the chess.js engine for move validation, while the underlying React framework handles the data processing and visualization of move frequencies.
