Hello everyone,
The function: ( http://dpaste.com/644857/)
def UserChoice (): # The function that returns the choice
from the user
print 'Please select (P) for paper, (R) for Rock, or (S)
for Scissors.'
choice = raw_input('What is your selection?:')
if choice.lower() not in ('p', 'r','s'): # Converts
the user's choice to lowercase and confirms the choice is valid
print 'I am sorry, you entered\'' +
choice.upper() + '\' which is an invalid response. Please try
again.'
raw_input('Press Enter to try again.')
UserChoice () # If the choice is not
valid, run the function over
You should use
return UserChoice()
else:
return choice

I am not sure if I understand, why doesn't my way work and what do you
mean I should return UserChoice()?
