MANCALA 1.0
by Samuel Arriaga Flrez
--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO PLAY:
------------
Mancala is played with seven pits: six playing pits plus one score pit,
the Kalaha per player. At the beginning of the game, 
each of the (12) playing pits contains 3 seeds. 
To play, the player chooses one pit from which to "sow" the seeds. 
Each seed in the pit is  then placed, one at a time, into the successive
pits, moving counter-clockwise around the board. 
Seeds placed in a Kalaha are points for that player. 
If the last seed in a play is placed in the player's own Kalaha, 
they get another turn. 
If the last seed is placed in an empty pit on their own side of the board,
then they Capture the seeds in the opposite (their opponent's) pit, and
the last seed moved (Yours). 
All captured seeds, as well as the capturing piece, 
are placed in the player's Kalaha. 
The game ends when all of the pits on one side of the board are empty. 
The player with seeds remaining gets to put them into their Kalaha. 
The winner is the player with the most seeds.
