How to send Tic Tac Toe game program?

[dealrocker]

I have a question regarding a file sending. Well, my friend his finished his Tic Tac Toe game program and I just want to know if someone can tell me what he need to do in order to send the .exe file to someone and make it, so the file executes without problems.

Compile it?

Are you compiling with visual studio?

If you are using VC++ you need to pick up the runtime libraries and install them on the user's computer before they can use your prog. MS also refers to them as redistributables.
EDIT: By the way I'm not sure about other IDEs/compilers.

I'm up to a 75% winning percentage on the "heads I win, tails you lose" thing. :)

Hmm... Interesting.
I just run an exhaustive search of every possible game and its result, and this is what I got:
Games winnable by X: 32073, (51.9999%)
Games winnable by O: 18374, (29.7897%)
Tied games : 11232, (18.2104%)
Games winnable by X: 91, (65.942%)
Games winnable by O: 44, (31.8841%)
Tied games : 3, (2.17391%)
(X is whichever player starts.)

An economist would say that this proves that there is a first-mover advantage. :-)
