A simple tic tac toe project due (last week actually) and am at a loss in finally finishing it and the current errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

moves=0;

//input cell - if the cell is unoccupied (check value for 0)
{
moves++;

//set the br[cell] = curr_player;
//use switch statement to determine if that move makes the user a winner

switch(cell)

if((br[0] == curr_player) && (br[1] == curr_player) && (br[2]==curr_player))

Well, what are these errors that you are encountering? Are they compile errors? runtime errors?
