Reversi or Othello Game (Java) Description

Reversi is a graphical Java 1.1 AWT (GUI) applet to play the board game of Reversi, also known as Othello. The playing board is a rectangular grid. Your positions are shown as black circles. Positions occupied by the computer are shown in white. You move first. A legal move is any empty position that traps one or more of the computer's positions in a straight line (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) between the empty position and another of your positions. The trapped positions are then "flipped" (reversed) and become your positions. To help you, legal moves are highlighted when you hold the mouse over an empty position. If you can't move, then you lose your turn and the computer moves next. The game ends when nobody can move. The player with the most occupied positions is the winner.
