You probably are already using JavaScript, commonly used for interactive web capabilities such as creating website search tools. However, organizations also use JavaScript to create online learning activities, online games for sales discounts (think of the spin-the-wheel-for-the-discount activity), and other interactive experiences.
In this hands-on guided project, you will recreate the game of Rock-Paper-Scissors using JavaScript in IBM's cloud-based environment.
You’ll learn how to apply JavaScript functions, objects, and event handlers to handle the game logic and deliver a logical, consistent gaming experience.
Your online lab environment has all of the software you need pre-installed. All you need is a recent version of a modern web browser to complete this project.
