Overview
This example shows how to build a Rock Paper Scissors game on LabVIEW.
Description
This Application allows the user to play Paper Rock Scissors against the computer. The user selects his choice by clicking one of the buttons. The value change of the button causes the computer to pick a random choice The choices are compared and the result is displayed. The game also uses shift registers to keep track of wins, losses, and ties. It also calculates the percentage of each.
The computer’s choice is calculated using the random number (0-1) function and evaluating the number of predefined ranges. This could be easily expanded to generate an algorithm that generates random choices in other programs.
Requirements
LabVIEW Base Development System.
