# This program creates an 8x8 integer board.
# For each row:
# - All values are set to zero
# - One random column is chosen
# - A random value (1..100) is placed in that column
#
# It mirrors the structure of the C++ version:
# initialize_board()
# print_board()
# main logic
BOARD_SIZE = 8
# initialize_board:
# - Sets all values to zero
# - For each row:
# * randomly selects one column (0..7)
# * places a random integer (1..100) in that column
def initialize_board(board)
board.each_with_index do |row, r|
# Set entire row to zero
(0...BOARD_SIZE).each { |c| row[c] = 0 }
# Choose a random column index
random_col = rand(BOARD_SIZE)
# Place a random non-zero value (1..100)
random_value = rand(1..100)
row[random_col] = random_value
end
end
# print_board:
# - Prints the 8x8 board in a readable grid format
def print_board(board)
board.each do |row|
puts row.join(" ")
end
