-
Have a Java class encapsulating the functionality of a die.
The die should be configurable according to the number of sides.
-
Have another Java class that represents a pair of dice. The pair
of dice should construct the two dice with the number of sides
specified at the beginning of the program.
-
Note:
-
Dice rolling can call Math.random() method, which
returns a double value between 0.0 and 1.0. Multiplying
the result by an integer and then casting it to an int
yields a random number in the range between zero and the number by which you multiplied (but not including the upper boundary itself.) For example,
// Compute random number from zero to 5:
int maxNum = 6;
int randomValue = (int) ( Math.random() * maxNum );
You can add 1 to the formula in order to shift the random value into the
range between 1 and the maxNum:
// Compute random number from 1 to 6:
int maxNum = 6;
int randomValue = 1 + (int) ( Math.random() * maxNum );
-
The main method should create the pair of dice, roll the dice, and display the
sum of the values rolled. For example, if the values rolled on the dice were 5 and 3,
the display format should be
5 + 3 = 8
-
Print a special meaning for the combinations yielding 2, 7, and 12. For example,
1 + 1 = 2 snake eyes!
3 + 4 = 7 craps!
6 + 6 = 12 box cars!
Feel free to expand and add your own features, if you'd like.
