I need to create a code to play the game Battleship using matlab. As of right now I have been able to create a computer generated board that is for the computer to use and creates random ships everywhere on the 10x10 board. the only problem I have is I can't figure out how to create the user board in which they use inputs to place their ships onto the board. this is my code so far... I need to make it so that the computer board ships don't overlap and I need to make the user board and all of the game functions.

Compboard=zeros(10); A=1; B=2; C=3; D=4; E=5; F=6; G=7; H=8; I=9; J=10; disp('32=sub , 31=cruiser, 4=battleship, 2=destroyer, 5=aircraft carrier') %--------Placing Ships Comp--------% %-----destroyer-------% ALPHArange = 'A':'J'; Drow = ALPHArange(randi(numel(ALPHArange))); Dcol = randi(9,1,1); idx = find(ismember(ALPHArange, Drow)); Compboard(idx, Dcol:Dcol + 1) = 2; sum(Dcol)==0; %-------aircraft carrier----------% ALPHArange = 'A':'J'; Drow = ALPHArange(randi(numel(ALPHArange))); Dcol = randi(9,1,1); idx = find(ismember(ALPHArange, Drow)); Compboard(idx, Dcol:Dcol + 4) = 5; sum(Dcol)==0; %--------BattleShip----------% ALPHArange = 'A':'J'; Drow = ALPHArange(randi(numel(ALPHArange))); Dcol = randi(9,1,1); idx = find(ismember(ALPHArange, Drow)); Compboard(idx, Dcol:Dcol + 3) = 4; sum(Dcol)==0; %---Submarine----------% ALPHArange = 'A':'J'; Drow = ALPHArange(randi(numel(ALPHArange))); Dcol = randi(9,1,1); idx = find(ismember(ALPHArange, Drow)); Compboard(idx, Dcol:Dcol + 3) = 32; sum(Dcol)==0; %---------------Cruiser-----------% ALPHArange = 'A':'J'; Drow = ALPHArange(randi(numel(ALPHArange))); Dcol = randi(9,1,1); idx = find(ismember(ALPHArange, Drow)); Compboard(idx, Dcol:Dcol + 3) = 31 sum(Dcol)==0;
