Tic Tac Toe

This C program implements a Tic-Tac-Toe game with functions for initializing the game board, displaying the board, updating the board when a player makes a move, checking for a winner after each move, and playing the full game. The main function handles input from players and restarting the game. Global variables track the 3x3 board array and the current player's marker.
