Can you guys help me work out the bugs in this project?

If i pick rock, paper or scissors the random_choice does not change. It keeps giving me back the same answer. How do i change that? also it does not record the wins, loses and draws

Hi,

I just started myself so I'm not an expert at all, but I noticed something that might help:

I added continue after every wins, losses, draws because that might throw you back up to the start letting you choose another action + it should store the points (I hope). Also instead of calling the elif player == 'q' multiple places maybe try do something like this:

        if player == 'r':
            if random_choice == 'r':
                print('I chose {}, we tied'.format(random_choice))
                Draws += 1
                continue
            elif random_choice == 'p':
                print('I chose {}, You lose!'.format(random_choice))
                Loses +=1
                continue
            else:
                print('I chose {}, You win'.format(random_choice))
                Wins +=1
                continue
        elif player == 'p':
            if random_choice == 'r':
                print('I chose {}, You Win'.format(random_choice))
                Wins +=1
                continue
            elif random_choice == 'p':
                print('I chose {}, We tied'.format(random_choice))
                Draws += 1
                continue
            else :
                print('I chose {}, You lose'.format(random_choice))
                Loses +=1
                continue
        elif player == 's':
            if random_choice == 'r':
                print('I chose {}, You lose'.format(random_choice))
                Loses +=1
                continue
            elif random_choice == 'p':
                print('I chose {}, You win!'.format(random_choice))
                Wins +=1
                continue
            else:
                print('I chose {}, We tied'.format(random_choice))
                Draws += 1
                continue
        elif player == 'q':
            break

print('Wins: {}, Loses: {}, Draws {}'.format(Wins, Loses, Draws))

Please let me know if it helped or not :-)
