I'm playing a game of rock, paper, scissors against the code using the random module. When I input my choice, the code repeats endlessly, no matter what it is.

I think this only gets run once before the loop right?
So you never get the chance to change this value, so you never exit the loop if you ever enter it

Thank you. That error is fixed. The only other issue I'm having is when I put in a valid choices 1 or 3, they'll sometimes be invalid choices even though they're not.
