Take a look at this line (and I removed some extraneous code to make this easier to see):<\/p>\n
    if (currentstate == you_win){\n        else if (currentstate == comp_win)\n            \/\/...\n    }\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Looking at it this way, can you see why this is incorrect? Incidentally, this is why you should always use {<\/code> and }<\/code>. Do the if<\/code>…else<\/code> like this instead:<\/p>\n
if (currentstate == you_win){\n      \/\/ ...\n }\n else if (currentstate == comp_win) {\n     \/\/ ...\n  }\n    \/\/...\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Or, even better, just use a switch<\/code> statement:<\/p>\n
switch (currentstate) {\n       case you_win:\n             System.out.println(\"'X' Won!!\");\n             break;\n        case comp_win:\n            System.out.println(\"'O' won!!\");\n            break;\n\n        case draw:\n            System.out.println(\"It's a Draw :(\");\n            break;\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
