Introduction – Rock, Paper & Scissor
In the Development of Game C has most important role, Many of the Popular games developed with C Language. So Here we create a Rock, Paper & Scissor Game.
Overview of the Game
Rock, Paper & Scissor Game is the simple but most popular hand game which is played between two peoples. Each player simultaneously forms one of three shapes using an outstretched hand: rock (a fist), paper (an open hand), or scissor (a fist with a index and middle fingers extended, forming a V). Here are the rules of game, which is pattern for creating a structure of the game.
- Rock Beats Scissor
- Scissor Beats Paper
- Paper Beats Rock

Code Breakdown – Explanation
Here is Breakdown of Game codes Rock, Paper & Scissor For Explain how this game make:
Part 1 – Including Header Files
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>#include <time.h>
stdio.h
: This is a Standard input-output functions for console interaction.stdlib.h
: It is a Standard library functions likerand()
andsrand()
.time.h
: Here it Provides time-related functions for seeding the random number generator.
Part 2 – Function Definitons
1. ‘getUserChoice()’
int getUserChoice() { int choice; printf("Enter your choice:\n"); printf("1. Rock\n"); printf("2. Paper\n"); printf("3. Scissors\n"); scanf("%d", &choice); return choice;}
This Prompts is mainly used for the user to enter their choice (1 for Rock, 2 for Paper, 3 for Scissors) and returns the user’s input.
2. ‘getComputerChoice()’
int getComputerChoice() { return rand() % 3 + 1; // Generates a random number between 1 and 3}
Here this code Generates a random computer choice (Rock, Paper, or Scissors) using the rand()
function.
3. ‘determineWinner()’
void determineWinner(int userChoice, int computerChoice) { if (userChoice == computerChoice) { printf("It's a tie!\n"); } else if ((userChoice == 1 && computerChoice == 3) || (userChoice == 2 && computerChoice == 1) || (userChoice == 3 && computerChoice == 2)) { printf("You win!\n"); } else { printf("Computer wins!\n"); }}
This Prompts is used for Compares the user’s choice with the computer’s choice to determine the winner based on the game rules.
Part 3 – Main Function
int main() { int userChoice, computerChoice; // Initialize random seed srand(time(NULL)); printf("Welcome to Rock, Paper, Scissors!\n"); do { userChoice = getUserChoice(); if (userChoice < 1 || userChoice > 3) { printf("Invalid choice. Please enter a number between 1 and 3.\n"); continue; } computerChoice = getComputerChoice(); printf("You chose: "); switch (userChoice) { case 1: printf("Rock\n"); break; case 2: printf("Paper\n"); break; case 3: printf("Scissors\n"); break; } printf("Computer chose: "); switch (computerChoice) { case 1: printf("Rock\n"); break; case 2: printf("Paper\n"); break; case 3: printf("Scissors\n"); break; } determineWinner(userChoice, computerChoice); // Ask if the user wants to play again printf("Do you want to play again? (1 for Yes, 0 for No): "); scanf("%d", &userChoice); } while (userChoice == 1); printf("Thanks for playing Rock, Paper, Scissors!\n"); return 0;}
- Here the main() function which serves as the entry point of the program.
- Then, It initializes the random seed using srand(time(NULL)) to ensure different random numbers on each run.
- After showing each run, it Displays a welcome message and enters a loop where the game is played.
- Inside the loop, When the user’s choice is entered, the computer will choose its choice.
- After Choose of Choices, the winner is determined using determineWinner(), and the result will be displayed.
- The loop will continue until the user chooses not to play again.
