# Open-Battleship

## Requirements

- Ships may be placed beside each other, but may NOT overlap

- Each player has five ships (2, 3, 3, 4, 5)

- Each player takes one shot per turn (no streaks)

## How it works

After arranging their ships, player 1 sends their targeted square (e.g.: A4, C6, F2) encoded in bytes to the opponent and waits to recieve a response. Player 2 recieves their targeted sqaure and sends back a boolean of whether a ship is on the targeted square encoded in bytes. The same steps happen again, but the order swaps and the player 2 sends their targeted square to player 1. Use [Convert.java](https://github.com/alexphanna/Open-Battleship/blob/main/Convert.java) to convert from boolean and (row, column) to bytes.

| Value  | Bytes  |

| ------ | ------ |

| false  | 0      |

|  true  | 1      |

| (0, 0) | {0, 0} |

## Basic Implementation

### Receiving

```java

DatagramSocket socket = new DatagramSocket(PORT);

byte[] buffer = new byte[512];

DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, buffer.length);

socket.receive(packet);

System.out.println(new String(buffer, 0, buffer.length));

```

### Sending

```java

DatagramSocket socket = new DatagramSocket();

String str = "hello world";

byte[] buffer = str.getBytes();

DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, buffer.length, ADDRESS, PORT);

socket.send(packet);

```
