Theres a couple things in here that I liked and didn't like. </p> <h3> Likes: </h3> <ul> <li>You can autogenerate a board with the ships randomly placed in valid areas! </li> <li>Fairly intuitive and visually alright considering it is only used in terminal.</li> <li>Was able to learn a little more about error handling and user experience.</li> </ul> <h3> Needs Improvement: </h3> <ul> <li>Some inputs are not checked if they are completely valid or not. i.e. somethings are only checked to see if input was an int and not necessarily a valid number to be used. </li> <li>Wish there was an easier way to make both the board showing your ships and your guesses in the same area so they are not stacked. </li> </ul> <p><a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--P3X6nASn--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/abutlg0txb69fl42ucqi.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--P3X6nASn--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/abutlg0txb69fl42ucqi.png" alt="Image description" width="880" height="612"></a></p> python terminal beginners
