Question

def crapsGame():
# PROBLEM 3.
# In the game of craps, the player ('shooter') throws
# two standard six-sided dice repeatedly. On the first
# throw, the shooter wins on 7 or 11 (a 'natural') and
# loses on 2, 3 or 12 ('craps'). Create lists that define
# the losing and winning first throw combinations.
  
# PROBLEM 4. Make the first throw.
# Call dieThrows() to simulate the shooter's first throw of
# two dice. If the throw is 2, 3 or 12, print a loser's message
# to the shooter and return 'L'. If the throw is 7 or 11 print a
# winner's message to the shooter and return 'W'.
