Question

Write a program that plays the popular scissor-rock-paper game. (A scissor can cut a paper, a rock can break a scissor, and a paper can cover a rock.) The program randomly generates a number 0, 1, or 2 representing scissor, rock, and paper. The program prompts the user to enter a number 0, 1, or 2 and displays a message indicating whether the user or the computer wins, loses, or draws. Allow the user to continue playing or quit.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The following program is written in Python and follows all the instructions accordingly to create the rock paper scissor game as requested.

from random import randint

answers = ["Scissors", "Rock", "Paper"]

computer = answers[randint(0, 2)]

continue_loop = False

while continue_loop == False:

player_choice = input("Choose a number, 0 = Scissors, 1 = Rock , 2 = Paper?")

player_choice = answers[int(player_choice)]

if player_choice == computer:

print("Tie!")

elif player_choice == "Rock":

if computer == "Paper":

print("You lose!", computer, "covers", player_choice)

else:

print("You win!", player_choice, "smashes", computer)

elif player_choice == "Paper":

if computer == "Scissors":

print("You lose!", computer, "cut", player_choice)

else:

print("You win!", player_choice, "covers", computer)

elif player_choice == "Scissors":

if computer == "Rock":

print("You lose...", computer, "smashes", player_choice)

else:

print("You win!", player_choice, "cut", computer)

else:

print("That's not a valid play. Check your spelling!")

continue_or_not = input("Would you like to play again? Y/N")

continue_or_not = continue_or_not.lower()

if continue_or_not != "y":

break

computer = answers[randint(0, 2)]
