Project Summary

This project builds a python program that plays the game of Rock Paper Scissors which is a hand game usually played between two people, in which each player simultaneously forms one of three shapes with an outstretched hand.

Gameplay

• The program plays a game of Rock Paper Scissors, following the conventional rules.
  • Paper beats rock; rock beats scissors; scissors beat paper.
• The program plays a match consisting of multiple rounds, and tracks players' total score.
  • The game displays the results after each round, including each player's score. At the end, the final score is displayed.
  • The number of rounds per game, as well as when to stop, are up to you!
• There are at least four different computer player classes, each implementing a different strategy.
  • The game has four computer player strategies:
    • A player that always plays 'rock'
    • A player that chooses its moves randomly.
    • A player that remembers and imitates what the human player did in the previous round.
    • A player that cycles through the three moves

Object-Oriented Programming

• The code uses classes and objects to store game data, rather than global variables.
  • The Game class includes a method to play a single round, and a method to play a match of several rounds.
  • Facts about the current match, such as the players' score, or the number of rounds played, is stored as instance variables.
• The code uses subclasses appropriately.
  • Each computer player strategy is a subclass of the Player base class, as the Human player.

Code Style

• The code style follows the standard Python style guide.
  • The pycodestyle tool reports zero errors and zero warnings.
• The program does not crash or display any error messages.
  • The code has been thoroughly tested.
  • Invalid moves does not make the program crash.
• The program checks the validity of user input.
  • If the player enters a move that is not valid, the game gives them the chance to retry that move until they enter a valid move.
  • The game does not crash, and it does not treat invalid input as a valid move.
    Example: If the player enters "roxk" instead of "rock", the game should let them try again; it should not crash, and it should not assume they meant "rock".
