2nd Project: Rock, Paper, Scissors

[MiNigle]

Hello

My second project is rock, paper, scissors which works with a "best of 3 rounds" mechanic.

Again, if anyone has a little time to spare could you go over my code to see how I've done please? I think my main concern is, have I over-complicated the process? I can't help but think 146 lines is overkill for rock, paper, scissors...?

Any input is very much appreciated, thank you.

PCrps = [
    'Rock',
    'Paper',
    'Scissors'

    'Paper' : 'Rock',
    'Rock' : 'Scissors',
    'Scissors' : 'Paper',

Thanks for reading.

I think you did good. It's not that much more lines of code than the one I did.

Well done.
whenever you notice yourself copying and pasting blocks of code ask yourself if you really need to.

functions round1, round2 & round3 are very much the same code,
You could manage with just one function that alters only where needed.

functions won and lost also have a lot of duplicated code.

Cheers, I think I can see how to improve it. Very helpful thank you.
