-- [ ] Didn't appear to come super prepared with the solution in mind
-- [ ] I'm not 100% certain he read the specification in detail, but relied on his memory of how minesweeper worked
-- [ ] Very minor: used different terms for the same thing `bombFound` but `MineBox`

 Other comments:
-- [ ] Created class for `MineBox` and `Board` 
-- [ ] Used multi-dimensional array of `MineBox`es in `Board` 
-- [ ] Used `Random` to set mines randomly around the board
-- [ ] Used a while loop in Program until `bool gameEnded` was reached
-- [ ] Used `Convert.ToInt32` instead of `int.Parse` to get coordinates from console input line
-- [ ] Ran into issues looping and redisplaying the board

 Questions to ask:
-- [ ] What could you do to take your game logic and render it any way you wanted to (console, HTML, graphical...)
-      Could do a virtual method on `Board` to allow clients to override it to render the board
-- [ ] Why did you choose to have Program.cs "own" the rendering of the board instead of Board?
-- [ ] Could you have Board "own" the rendering without it knowing exactly what it's renderings (strings, icons, HTML elements, etc)?
-- [ ] Explain your choice to use `Convert.Int32`?
-- [ ] You loop over the entire board or parts of the board (nested loops) a couple of times.  How could you abstract that logic while still using it for different purposes?
-      Would have to iterate the board each time. When I explained 
-- [ ] Could you abstract the Game logic to untie it from the rendering and board?
