C++, whooo!

First, change the name of your Snakebot in src/snake.h. The name of your Snakebot must be unique!

In src/main.cpp in the following code snippet:

static const std::string host = "snake.cygni.se";
static const std::string port = "80";
static const std::string venue = "training";

you may change the venue to either 'training' or 'tournament'.

Edit the snake at src/snake.cpp, primarily the get_next_move function.

Ensure you have the necessary websocket package:

# fetch the necessary external dependencies
git submodule update --init --recursive 
# build and run the snakebot
make run
# or just build it with
make build

You can also use Docker to build and run the project:

docker-compose run snakebot make run

If you modify the client, run make test to verify that the test suite is still passing.
