Can you please explain the meaning of c1, c2 and c3 variables ?

 

This should work better.. (not tested since i don´t have python installed on any of my servers)

import random
import os
while 1 == 1:
    a = ['1', '2', '3']
    p = random.choice(a)
    os.system("clear")
    print "Your Options Are: "    
    print "1) Scissors"
    print "2) Paper"
    print "3) Rock"
    print "4) Quit"
    x = raw_input("Make Your Choice: ")
    if x == 4:
        break;
    if p == 1:
        if x == 1:
            print "A Draw!"
        elif x == 2:
            print "You Lose!"
        elif x == 3:
            print "You Win!"
    elif p == 2:
        if x == 1:
            print "You Win!"
        elif x == 2:
            print "A Draw!"
        elif x == 3:
            print "You Lose!"
    elif p == 3:
        if x == 1:
            print "You Lose!"
        elif x == 2:
            print "You Win!"
        elif x == 3:
            print "A Draw!"
    raw_input("Press Enter To Continue")
    os.system("clear")
