Project choice: Connect 4

I used images from google to visually represent the board of the game 
and the yellow and red chips that represent a player.

Besides the images, I did not receive any help outside of TA office hours,
did not collaborate with anyone, and I did not use any resources beyond
the standard course materials.

 To execute the game, run the Connect4.java file. There are no command line
 arguments. The game can be executed through the main function by creating an
 instance of the connect 4 object.

Rather than clicking anywhere on a specific column to add a move,
I created seven buttons to represent the 7 columns. To add a move, 
the player just needs to click on the button that represents that 
specific column. In addition, not sure if this counts as a feature, 
more of a decoration I suppose, I added the name of the game on the
starting menu and the game page.

 Board.java - creates an object to represent the board
 BoardTest.java - used to test the functions in Board.java
 Chip.java - creates an object to represent the chips
 Connect4.java - uses the board and chip objects to implement the 
                 game of connect 4

               player 1

                  represent player 2

 Getting the mouse click to work right was really difficult, but the
 video presented on piazza was helpful. 

 From this project, I really learned the purpose of helper functions.
 At first, I repeated the code to draw the "Player 1 Wins!" and 
 "Player 2 Wins", and "Draw!" messages under each button for each column
 and I was wondering why my code was so long. Then I realized that I could
 put all those lines of code into a help function and cut it down to one 
 line of code. I realized that I never really understood the usefulness 
 of helper functions in simplifying the code until now.
