This program allows two people to play the
game of Connect four. Each player takes turns
dropping a checker in one of the open columns
on the board. The columns are numbered 1 to 7.
The first player to get four checkers in a row
horizontally, vertically, or diagonally wins
the game. If no player gets fours in a row and
and all spots are taken the game is a draw.
Player one's checkers will appear as r's and
player two's checkers will appear as b's.
Open spaces on the board will appear as .'s.

Player 1 enter your name: Jen

Player 2 enter your name: Bob
