Example Input:

R

Output:

You Win!!!
~~CONGRATS~~
 You:R
 Computer:S

Example Input:

R

Output:

===========
====TIE====
===========

Example Input:

R

Output:

You Lose!!!
~~TRY AGAIN:-(~~
 You:P
 Computer:S

Example Input:

Something else

Output:

=====Error=====
Input Format: R
        or
Input Format: S
        or
Input Format: P

Code:

x = input().upper()
y = {'R','P','S'}.pop()
if (x=='R'and y=='S') or (x=='S' and y=='P')or(x=='P'and y=='R'):
   print(f"You Win!!!\n~~CONGRATS~~\n You:{x}\n Computer:{y}")
elif (y=='R'and x=='S') or (y=='S' and x=='P')or(y=='P'and x=='R'):
   print(f"You Lose!!!\n~~TRY AGAIN:-(~~\n You:{x}\n Computer:{y}")
elif x==y:print('===========\n====TIE====\n===========')
else:print('=====Error=====\nInput Format: R\n\tor\nInput Format: S\n\tor\nInput Format: P')

Code Explanation:

In this code, we get input from the user, which is turned to upper case using the function upper() to avoid case confusion.

In order to store a random value for y, we use pop() function to a set.

As per the conditions of the game, we use if, elif and else statement that prints “You Win!!!…” if user wins and “You Lose!!!…” if not.

If equal values are received from both the sides, the code prints out “TIE”.

If the user enters anything other than R,P or S, the code prints out the input format.

And now, our code works perfectly fine.
