# implement tests for each of the methods here:
puts boggle_board.create_word([1,2], [1,1], [2,1], [3,2]) #=> "rick" 
boggle_board.get_row(1) #=>  ["i","o","d","t"]
boggle_board.get_col(1) #=> ["r","o","c","a"]




# create driver test code to retrieve a value at a coordinate here:
boggle_board.create_word[3,2] #=> "k"
#this is the one I wanted all along
boggle_board.board[3][2] #=>"k"
#The object orientated approach is implementing a class to store all the methods we would need to model a boggle board in this case
#The main difference in this problem was being able to store the board as part of a new object and then call the methods with the board already stored
#I was a bit confused on the last bit of driver code I made.  I though that if my intialize created an attr_accessor :board then i would be able to 
#call that as a method "boggle_board.board[3,2]" except I was a bit unclear on the syntax for that since we were passing a parameter to it
#I didn't do a refactor on this one because I believe me methods were already clear and concise however I would have liked using the attr in order to do that last driver code.
#That would have made a lot more since being able to access the board that I initialized in that way instead of using the method that was designed for a slightly different purpose.
#OKAY I FOUND OUT HOW TO DO IT WAS TRYING TO PASS IT INSIDE THE INITIALIZE METHOD NOW I FIXED IT WOW
