Player names

Functions that TTT will use

playTTT()

   # create 'tools'

   # get player names

   # draw board

   # alternate play between X and O until game ends

getPlayerNames()

   # two name, first is X, second is O

   # return tuple of names (strings)

getmove(board)

   # return digit 0-8 that is unoccupied on board

drawboard(t, cellsize)

   # draw centered on screen

drawX(t, cell)

   # draw X in specified cell, half of cellsize

drawO(t, cell)

   # draw O in specified cell, half of cellsize

drawConcentric(t, radius)

   # helper function for drawO

drawMidline(t, length)

   # helper function for drawX, drawboard

gameOver(board)

   # check whether X has won, 0 has won,

   # game is draw, or none of the these

   # return 'X', 'O', 'D' or '-' respectively
