I coded Rock, Paper, Scissors. I added the randomness, made it loop at the
user's request, added win code, no problems there. I changed some strings to
F-strings to practice using them, and now the first "elif" in my if loop
(player chooses rock, bot chooses paper) doesn't work. Any help ideas? I
checked syntax, no error messages other than mine that I added
Pasting code below the line:
_____________________________________________________________________________
import random #Allows for a random input.
options = ["Rock", "Paper", "Scissors"] #Tells the computer what its options
are.
playerchoices = []
repeat = True
while repeat == True:
rand_choice = random.randint(1,3)
choice = options[rand_choice-1] #defines player options and selection
while True:
player_choice = input("Welcome to Rock, Paper, Scissors. To begin, choose
Rock, Paper, or Scissors. ")
if player_choice == "Rock":
break
if player_choice == "Paper":
break
if player_choice == "Scissors":
break
else:
print("Invalid input, try again. Capitalize your response and ensure
proper spelling. ") #Lines 10-19 give the player a choice as to what to pick.
#The code below determines victory status.
if player_choice == "Rock" and choice == options[0]:
print(f"Computer played {options[0]}. Tie.")
playerchoices.append("Rock")
elif player_choice == "Rock " and choice == "Paper":
print(f"Computer played {options[1]}. You lose.")
