I am having trouble thinking of a way for function playGame() to play
5 rounds. I was thinking of setting a for loop in game() for function
playGame() but it’s not incrementing -.-

I tried incrementing compareSelection() in function playGame() but
that played 5 rounds in 1 push of a button but I wasn’t trying to do
that.

  1. It looks like you have access to these three variables in all of your functions pScore, cScore, and tie. Could you know you’ve reached 5 games by checking pScore + cScore + tie, and when it hasn’t you call playgame again?

    if (pScore + cScore + tie < 5) playGame()

  2. One option is to have a count variable for your click events. when that count sum is 5, your load can call a method to reset the game or load initial UIs.

    another way is to check sum of score count (pScore + cScore + tie) has reached 5. then again you can a method to reset the game or load initial UIs.
