TWODICE

Purpose
To simulate rolling two standard six-sided die, for which each of the six possible scores
are equally likely on each die. The two die rolls are added each time to produce a score.
Operation
Enter the number of rolls required. (The maximum is 255.)
The program will display the mean score of the simulated dice rolls.
The actual totals are stored in List 1. Any data already in List 1 will be lost.
Press Menu 2 to see the data, and to analyse them if you wish. You may like to use
program FREQDIST in order to convert the data into a frequency distribution.
Each time the program is run, a different set of dice rolls is generated.
To simulate dice with different numbers of sides, edit the fourth line of the program.
For example, if you change the first six to a ten, the program will simulate rolling a ten-
sided die followed by a six-sided die and then adding the scores. In each case, all sides
of dice are equally likely. Here is the relevant line after editing:
