Hello Everybody. I am trying to write a program that asks the user to enter the amount of dice they want to use, and how many rolls they would like to make. Eventually I will need to store the output in strings, so I can print out how many times each number showed up (ex. 7 Showed up 2 Times). However, Right now I am just trying to print out the value of the rolls. I am trying to figure out how to have the dice values add up (and return that) and repeat the loop for how many rolls the person enters. This is what I have so far, it is currently adding up all rolls and printing out one value.
import java.util.*;
public class Dice {
public static Scanner in = new Scanner (System.in);
public static void main (String[] args) {
int dice = 0;
int roll = 0;
while (true) {
System.out.print ("How Many Dice Do You Want To Roll? ");
dice = in.nextInt();
if (dice > 0) break;
System.out.println ("Must Be Positive!");
}
while (true) {
System.out.print ("How Many Times Do You Want To Roll? ");
roll = in.nextInt();
if (roll > 0) break;
System.out.println ("Must Be Positive!");
}
int dicetotal = Dicecount (dice, roll);
System.out.println (dicetotal);
}
public static int Dicecount (int dice, int roll) {
int dicetotal = 0;
for (int i = 0; i <roll; i++) {
for (int x = 0; x < dice; x++) {
int rollcount =(int)(1+6*(Math.random()));
dicetotal+=rollcount; }
}
return dicetotal;
}
}
