Add the numbers to a minesweeper board.
Minesweeper is a popular game where the user has to find the mines using numeric hints that indicate how many mines are directly adjacent (horizontally, vertically, diagonally) to a square.
In this exercise you have to create some code that counts the number of
mines adjacent to a square and transforms boards like this (where *
indicates a mine):
+-----+
| * * |
| * |
| * |
| |
+-----+
into this:
+-----+
|1*3*1|
|13*31|
| 2*2 |
| 111 |
+-----+

You can run all the tests for an exercise by entering the following in your terminal:
$ gradle testIn the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by removing the
@Ignore("Remove to run test") annotation.
It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
