I was bored so i created this program ti simulate a game of paper, scissors, rock.
It was working well untill idecided to tinker a-bit.
Now when I run it and enter a move it outputs this:

Choose your move  paper
You chose paper
Choose your move  scissors
You chose scissors
Choose your move  rock
You chose rock
Choose your move  

Here is the code:

import random
playagain = "yes"
quitgame = "no"

#Ask if user would like to play again
#Replay game if user would like to continue
while (playagain == "yes" or playagain == "y" and quitgame == "no" or quitgame == "n"):

    playermove = "--"

    #Choose moves
    while (playermove != "paper" or playermove != "scissors" or playermove != "rock"):
        playermove = str(input("Choose your move  "))
        playermove = playermove.lower()
        if (playermove == "paper" or playermove == "scissors" or playermove == "rock"):
            print ("You chose", playermove)
        else:
            print("Please choose a valid move!")

    compmove = random.randint(0,2)
    if (compmove == 0):
        print ("Computer chose paper")
    elif (compmove == 1):
        print ("Computer chose scissors")
    elif (compmove == 2):
        print ("Computer chose rock")

    #Work out winner
    #0 = paper
    #1 = scissors
    #2 = rock

    #If user plays paper
    if (playermove == "paper" and compmove == 0):
               print ("Draw")
    elif (playermove == "paper" and compmove == 1):
               print ("You lose!")
    elif (playermove == "paper" and compmove == 2):
               print ("You win!")

    #If user plays scissors
    if (playermove == "scissors" and compmove == 0):
               print ("You win!")
    elif (playermove == "scissors" and compmove == 1):
               print ("Draw")
    elif (playermove == "scissors" and compmove == 2):
               print ("You lose!")

    #If user plays rock
    if (playermove == "rock" and compmove == 0):
               print ("You lose!")
    elif (playermove == "rock" and compmove == 1):
               print ("You win!")
    elif (playermove == "rock" and compmove == 2):
               print ("Draw")

    playagain = str(input("Would you like to play again?  "))
    playagain = playagain.lower()
    quitgame = str(input("Do you really want to quit?  "))

exit()

Any help greatly appreciated.

I solved it,

The second while loop needed and instead of or because it checks for one of the three parameters not all three.

You can also use

while playermove not in ('paper', 'scissors', 'rock'):
    ...
commented: I might use this, if would probably be more efficient, thank-you +0
