Example without all the {} and else if

always use else if when you can.. since your if statements are different cases and only one applies you should use else if..

with if statements if you only have 1 statement after the condition you don't need {} (condition 1 below).. even if you have a if.. else if...block statement its considered one statement..(condition 2 below).. but if it helps you can use them around the if.. else if...block statement to help your understand it better ..(condition 3 below).. ..

also don't use === unless you really know what it does.. it can cause you trouble being a rookie.. use == by default..

if(choice1 == choice2)  //condition 1
    return "The result is a tie!";
else if(choice1 == "rock") //condition 2
    if(choice2 == "scissors") 
        return "rock wins";
     else 
        return "paper wins";
else if(choice1 == "paper"){ //condition 3
    if(choice2 == "rock") 
        return "paper wins";
     else 
        return "scissors wins";
}
else if(choice1 == "scissors")
    if(choice2 == "rock")
       return "rock wins";
    else 
       return "scissors wins";
