Project Minesweeper

A collection – sometimes just called a “container”  – is a structure that holds more than one element.
Lists are the most commonly used collection type in Kotlin and many other programming languages.
In this practical project, you’ll create your own Minesweeper game – a fun and challenging brain teaser for both you and your players.
Learning objectives: Learn how to work with lists in Kotlin; generate the minefield and process player moves while exploring algorithms.
