hi people i was wondering how you create a test plan im new to this and just created my 1st c game... need some help as im not sure how to create a test plan preferably in a table.

/*In order to play the game of craps. each player rolls 2 dice. 
Each die has 6 faces. These faces contain 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 spots.
After the dice have come to rest, the sum of the spots on the 2 upward
faces is calculated. If the sum is 7 or 11 on the first throw, the 
player wins. If the sum is 2, 3, or 12 on the first throw (called "craps"), 
the payer loses (i.e., the "house" wins). If the sum is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 
on the first throw, then that sum becomes the player's "point". 
To win, the player must continue rolling the dice until he/she 
"makes the point". You lose by rolling a 7 before making the point.*/

a test plan is designed to test the robustness of your program. if you are taking in any input from the user, you would want to try many values for those inputs. most importantly, u would want to try values that a "nice" user wouldn't give u. for example, would ur program properly handle a negative value? would it properly handle the user entering NO value at all, and just sendin u EOF?
