(PC-1211) Multiple Dice Throw
An excerpt from Science and Engineering Sourcebook, page 87:
Description Many games, e.g. the popular YAH-T-ZEE, and even computer modeling simulations, are based on the outcome of the multiple dice throw. This program permits a throw of 1 to 9 dice and displays the results of each multiple throw. The pseudo random generator shown in line 70, which does the "throwing," works well in the applications to which I submitted it; however, if you have your own favorite feel free to replace that line. Program Listing 10: "Z"CLEAR :PAUSE "MULTIPLE DICE":USING 20: INPUT "STARTER= ";B 30: INPUT "HOW MANY DICE?";A 40: IF (A>0)*(A<10)*(A=INT A)THEN 60 50: BEEP 1:PAUSE "ERROR":GOTO 30 60: FOR I=1TO A 70: B=997B+π :B=B-INT B:C=INT 6B+1 80: D=C*10^(I-1)+D:NEXT I 90: PRINT A;" DICE=";D 100: D=0:GOTO 30 INSTRUCTIONS Shift Z initializes the program and displays a prompt for a seed to start the pseudo random sequence. For best results, enter a number between 0 and 1. Next comes the prompt HOW MANY DICE for this throw. After a number n between 1 and 9 is entered, the program displays a n-digit number where each digit is between 1 and 6 and corresponds to a die. Pressing ENTER starts the sequence for another dice throw. BEST! SlideRule correction made |
