This project is an implementation of the Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock game in Ruby. It aims to provide a fun and educational way to understand basic programming concepts and practice writing clean, maintainable code.
To use this project, you need to have Ruby installed. If you haven't installed Ruby yet, you can download it from here.
Once you have Ruby installed, you can follow these steps:
- Clone this repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/your-project.git
- Navigate to the project directory:
cd your-project
After installing the project, you can use it as follows:
ruby lab3.rbUpon running the script, you will be greeted with a welcome message and prompted to select Player 1 and Player 2 from a list. You can only make valid selections from the list of six available players, or start over and select Player1 and Player 2 again. The program will then play five rounds of Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock. For each round, it will display the moves selected by each player and print out the result description (e.g., "Rock crushes Scissors"). Finally, it will determine the winner of the game.
In the directory tests you will find a number of pairs of files representing the given input and expected output of the test.
ruby lab3.rb < ./tests/t11.inThe above line will execute lab3.rb piping in the commands given in file t11.in. You can compare your result with the expected output given in file t11.out.
The test naming scheme corresponds to the players of the game. For example, test t43.in chooses LastPlayBot (option 4) as Player 1 and Iterative Bot (option 3) as Player 2.
