using namespace std;

/* Type your code here. */

int main()
{
   string p1, p2;
   cout << "Play rock, paper, scissors ";
   string goOn = "yes";
   while (goOn == "yes") {
       cout << "Player 1: ";
       cin >> p1;
       cout << p1 << endl;
       cout << "Player 2: ";
       cin >> p2;
       cout << p2 << endl;
       play(p1, p2);
       cout << "Do you want to continue? (yes or no): ";
       cin >> goOn;
       cout << goOn << endl;
   }
}

Explanation / Answer

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

void play( string p1, string p2 ){
   if( p1 == "paper" ){
       if( p2 == "scissors" ){
           cout << "Player 2 wins -- Scissors cut paper" << endl; }
       else if( p2 == "rock" ){
           cout << "Player 1 wins -- Paper covers rock" << endl; }
       else{
           cout << "Draw!" <<endl; }
   }
   if( p1 == "scissors" ){
       if( p2 == "paper" ){
           cout << "Player 1 wins -- Scissors cut paper" << endl; }
       else if( p2 == "rock" ){
           cout << "Player 2 wins -- Rock breaks scissors" << endl; }
       else{
           cout << "Draw!" <<endl; }
   }
   if( p1 == "rock" ){
       if( p2 == "scissors" ){
           cout << "Player 1 wins -- Rock breaks scissors" << endl; }
       else if( p2 == "paper" ){
           cout << "Player 2 wins -- Paper covers rock" << endl; }
       else{
           cout << "Draw!" <<endl; }
   }
   cout << endl;
}

int main()
{
    string p1, p2;
    cout << "Play rock, paper, scissors ";
    string goOn = "yes";
    while (goOn == "yes") {
        cout << "Player 1: ";
        cin >> p1;
        cout << "Player 2: ";
        cin >> p2;
        play(p1, p2);
        cout << "Do you want to continue? (yes or no): ";
        cin >> goOn;
    }
}
