Scissors beat Paper (cut it)
Paper beats Rock (wraps it)

Function to determine the winner

def determine_winner(user_choice, computer_choice):
if user_choice == computer_choice:
return "tie"
elif (user_choice == "rock" and computer_choice == "scissors") or \
(user_choice == "scissors" and computer_choice == "paper") or \
(user_choice == "paper" and computer_choice == "rock"):
return "user"

return "computer"

Main game loop

def play_game():
user_score = 0
computer_score = 0
round_number = 1

print("Welcome to Rock-Paper-Scissors!")

print("Type 'quit' to exit the game anytime.\n")

while True:

    print(f"--- Round {round_number} ---")

    user_choice = input("Enter rock, paper, or scissors: ").lower()

if user_choice == "quit":
    break

if user_choice not in choices:
    print("Invalid choice. Try again.\n")
    continue

computer_choice = random.choice(choices)
print(f"Computer chose: {computer_choice}")

winner = determine_winner(user_choice, computer_choice)
if winner == "user":
    print("You win this round!\n")
    user_score += 1
elif winner == "computer":
    print("Computer wins this round!\n")
    computer_score += 1
else:
    print("This round is a tie!\n")

print(f"Score -&gt; You: {user_score} | Computer: {computer_score}\n")
round_number += 1
