Context
Fill the board without either side getting three in a row, and the game
cheerfully announces:
None is Python's way of saying "no value", and it is leaking into the message
the player sees.
Steps to reproduce
python3 -m arcade
# choose Tic Tac Toe, and play to a draw
What to change
File: arcade/games/tictactoe.py
Function: play() — the last few lines
print(render(board))
print(f" {result} wins!\n")When nobody has won, result is None and that f-string prints it literally.
Handle the three outcomes separately: player wins, computer wins, draw.
There is already an is_full() helper in the same file — use it.
Acceptance criteria
