Rock, Paper, Scissors

Rock, Paper, Scissors – classic hand-to-hand combat game.

"""Rock, Paper, Scissors

The game is played in a series as follows:

1. Player chooses "r" for rock, "p" for paper, or "s" for scissors.
2. The computer will also choose rock, paper, or scissors.
3. The result will either be a win, loss, or tie:
   a. Rock crushes scissors.
   b. Scissors cuts paper.
   c. Paper covers rock.

First to score 5 points wins the series!
"""
# Exercises:
#
# 1. Create a strategy to rotate through 'r', 'p', and 's' in a cycle.
# 2. Create a strategy to do the same as the last computer choice.
# 3. Create a new strategy of your own.
