Can someone help me get started with this RockPaperScissors Game

* error message 1, and return a default name.
* For player 1, the default name is: Rocky
* For player 2, the default name is: Creed

string getName(int player_number)

Hello offset221,
The following gives you a place to start:
This tells you at least one variable that you will have, something that represents a "player_number", not that you have to use exactly as is, but something similar.
It also tells you that you will need a function to get the input.
Start with this portion and get it working before you move on.
Hope that helps,
Andy
