The following example was completed in class from scratch (problem understanding,
algorithm design, implementation, re-design & re-specification, testing and
debugging). To compile in your MSDOS shell open the makefile and change my
local directory set-up with yours, then type "make -f makefileDice". To
test-run the program type "DiceMainDriver".
Write a program that simulates the rolling of two dice.
The program should use rand to roll the first die and should
use rand again to roll the second die. The sum of the two
values should then be calculated.
Note:Since each die can show an integer value from 1 to 6,
then the sum of the two values will vary from 2 to 12,
with 7 being the most frequent sum and 2 and 12 being the
least frequent sums. The figure below shows the 36 possible
combinations of the two dice. Our program should roll the two
dice 36,000 times. Use a single-subscripted array to tally the
numbers of times each possible sum appears. Print the results
in a tabular format. Also, determine if the totals are reasonable
(i.e.,there are six ways to roll a 7,so approximately one sixth
of all the rolls should be 7).
