Inspiration
We can't directly see the inspiration section in the code, but it's likely inspired by the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors game.
What it does
This code creates a simple Rock, Paper, Scissors game playable in a web browser. Players can choose rock, paper, or scissors, and the computer makes a random choice. The game determines the winner and keeps track of the score.
How we built it
HTML: Defines the structure of the webpage, including headings, buttons, and display areas for player choice, computer choice, result, and scores. CSS (assumed): Likely styles the visual appearance of the elements (fonts, colors, layouts). (This code snippet doesn't include CSS) JavaScript: Handles the core gameplay logic: Stores game choices in an array (choices). Uses DOM manipulation to access and update elements on the webpage (buttons, display divs, score displays). Defines the playGame function, which: Takes the player's choice as input. Generates a random computer choice from the choices array. Determines the winner based on the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors rules. Updates the display elements with player and computer choices, and the result. Changes the color of the result text based on win/loss (assumed to be done by CSS classes). Updates the player and computer scores accordingly.
Challenges we ran into
