Problem with Basic Rock Paper Scissors code

[ichabod801]

• Your randomization isn't working because randint returns an int, and you are comparing that to strings.
  
• Better would be random.choice('rps'), it just gives you what you need in one line.
  
• Globals lead to confusing and hard to maintain code. Pass parameters and assign return values. See the function tutorial for more details.
  
• For multiple comparisons in is often [the best choice: if rps not in ('r', 'p', 's'):.
  
• RPS is a great place to learn dictionaries instead of complicated if/elif/else:
  

wins = {'r': 's', 'p': 'r', 's': 'p'}
if rps = ai:
    print('tie')
elif wins[ai] == rps:
    print('win')
else:
    print('loss')
