Paper Rock Scissors Exercise

The following is a small exercise to get an idea of your coding and design skills. We would like you to develop a simple interactive game of Paper Rock Scissors

It's intentionally not an algorithmically complex problem, so we're looking more at modelling and structure. We are trying to get a feel for how you code in a professional setting.

Functional Requirements

  • The user is presented with a CLI to play the game.
  • A user can enter one of 3 inputs: paper, rock or scissors.
  • The computer will choose one input at random.
  • The game rules will be applied and a winner is chosen:
    • Paper beats Rock
    • Rock beats Scissors
    • Scissors beats Paper.
    • The same input is a tie.
  • The game will repeat until the user explictly chooses to exit.
  • On exit a summary is displayed of games won, lost, and tied.

Non-Functional Requirements

  • Create a branch of this repo and submit your solution as a PR.
  • You can use any language you like, but we'd like to see your object oriented design skills, so best to use a language supporting OO.
  • Write your code to the same standard you would professionally (object structure, design patterns, readability, testing/testability, extensibility)
  • Write some unit tests for the key pieces of logic.
  • Don't go overboard, this should only take a few hours.
