Question

Write a C++ program to score the paper-rock-scissor game. Each of two players (player1 and player2) input a character which could be either ‘P’, ‘R’, or ‘S’ (in uppercase or lowercase). For any other input character should display a message “Invalid input”. The program then announces who is the winner as well as the basis for determining the winner which could be one of the following: “Paper covers rock”, “Rock breaks scissors”, “Scissors cut paper”, or “Nobody wins”. (Use switch statement)

Please do not add up the scores just have a simple quick game and then I would have to reset the program to play again
