If Statement Always True (String)

Question

I have here a rather simple rock, paper, scissors program where I am having some trouble with if statements. For some reason, when I enter rock, paper, or scissors (True Values)

Answer 1

The conditions in if are wrong.

Consider the if statement with parentheses:

if ('rock') or ('paper') or ('scissors' not in player):

It will always return True because rock will always be true.

You need to swap conditions' operands

if player not in computer:

After this swap, this line becomes irrelevant (and also its conditions are wrong) You need to remove it:

if player == 'rock' or 'paper' or 'scissors':
