Rock Paper Scissors using Python

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Dealing with elusive bugs, errors, and unexpected behavior in code which makes me mad :)

Describe the solution you'd like

Coping with frustrating, hard-to-find bugs in code can be stressful. Engaging in activities like playing a Python-based rock-paper-scissors game can provide a welcome break, relieve frustration, and even stimulate creative problem-solving, potentially leading to fresh insights when returning to bug-solving tasks.

Additional context

Incorporating short breaks and enjoyable activities, such as playing a Python rock-paper-scissors game, during intense debugging sessions can boost programmers' morale and prevent burnout. These breaks allow programmers to recharge mentally and return to the task with a clearer and refreshed perspective, often resulting in more effective bug-solving.

Hey @competitiveblood I would like to work on the issue.

Here is a proposed solution

from random import randint

#create a list of play options
t = ["Rock", "Paper", "Scissors"]

#assign a random play to the computer
computer = t[randint(0,2)]

#set player to False
player = False

while player == False:
#set player to True
    player = input("Rock, Paper, Scissors?")
    if player == computer:
        print("Tie!")
    elif player == "Rock":
        if computer == "Paper":
            print("You lose!", computer, "covers", player)
        else:
            print("You win!", player, "smashes", computer)
    elif player == "Paper":
        if computer == "Scissors":
            print("You lose!", computer, "cut", player)
        else:
            print("You win!", player, "covers", computer)
    elif player == "Scissors":
        if computer == "Rock":
            print("You lose...", computer, "smashes", player)
        else:
            print("You win!", player, "cut", computer)
    else:
        print("That's not a valid play. Check your spelling!")
    #player was set to True, but we want it to be False so the loop continues
    player = False
    computer = t[randint(0,2)]
