Let's Play Rock, Paper, Scissors!

Hey there! Do you know the game Rock, Paper, Scissors? It's super fun, and now you can play it right here with the computer! Let me show you how it works.

First, you'll need to type your name so we know who's playing. Then, you'll get to choose your move. You can pick rock, paper, or scissors. Just type your choice, and the computer will pick its move too.

After that, it's time to see who wins! If you both pick the same thing, it's a tie. But if one of you picks rock and the other picks scissors, rock wins! Paper beats rock, and scissors beat paper.

It's a simple game, but it's lots of fun! So, give it a try and see if you can beat the computer. Have fun playing!
⁠

⁠Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Open your IDE, like VS Code or any other you like.
⁠
⁠2. Create a new folder called "python-game"

3. Inside that folder, create a new file named "rock-paper-scissors.py."

4. Now, copy the code below and paste it into your "rock-paper-scissors.py" file.

import random

name = input()
user_action = input("Enter a choice (rock, paper, scissors): ")
possible_actions = ["rock", "paper", "scissors"]
computer_action = random.choice(possible_actions)
print(f"\n You chose {user_action}, computer chose {computer_action} \n")

if user_action == computer_action:
    print(f"Both players selected {user_action}. It's a tie")
elif user_action == "rock":
    if computer_action == "scissors":
      print(f"Rock beats scissors! {name} wins!")
    else:
      print(f"Paper beats rock! {name} lose!")
elif user_action == "paper":
    if computer_action == "rock":
      print(f"Paper beat rock! {name} wins!")
    else:
      print(f"Scissors beats paper! {name} lose!")
elif user_action == "scissors":
    if computer_action == "paper":
      print(f"Scissors beats paper! {name} wins!")
    else:
      print(f"Rock beats scissors! {name} lose!")

5. Next, open a terminal. You can usually find this in the same place you open your IDE.

6. In the terminal, type "python rock-paper-scissors.py" and then press Enter.

7. Type in your name and then press Enter. After that, you'll see another message asking you to enter your choice (rock, paper, or scissors). Type in your choice and then press Enter again.

And there you go! You've played the game! Now, see if you can beat the computer. Good luck!
