What will the program print if the player's choice is "Rock" and the computer's choice is "Scissors"?

• It's a tie!

• You win! Rock beats Scissors

• Computer wins!

• You win! Paper beats Rock

What is the correct way to generate a random choice for the computer in this Python program?

• computer_choice = random.choice([0,1,2])

• computer_choice = random.select("Rock", "Paper", "Scissors")

• computer_choice = choose(["Rock", "Paper", "Scissors"])

• computer_choice = random.randint(0, 2)

If both the player and the computer choose "Paper", what will the output of the program be?

• You win! Paper beats Rock

• Computer wins!

• It's a tie!

• You win! Rock beats Scissors
