No, "Nine Men's Morris" + diagonal mills = Eleven Men's Morris. Look in Board.java for the text graphic (an oxymoron) of the board we are using for hw6, Nine Men's Morris.
http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/andrew/course/15/211/www/hw6/Board.html does not pick up on the text graphic of the board since the formatting of the comments for Board.java.getSpace() (which contains the text graphic of the Board) is not javadoc-complaint, so you'll have to view Board.java itself.
Eleven's Morris Morris
Eleven Men's Morris uses a board with 3 concentric squares, but with lines connecting the corners, allowing mills to be formed diagonally. Each player has 11 pieces, and gameplay works exactly like Nine Men's Morris.

Yes, modular arithmetic is useful for detecting mills. |
