Question

Write an Object Oriented Program that performs a simulation to estimate the probability of rolling five-of-a-kind in single roll of five six-sided dice. Create a file that defines class Die, which has one instance variable (top) and a roll method for randomly assigning a new value (1 through 6) to top. Create a second file that imports the Die class and c reates five dice. Allow the user to specify how many rolls are to be simulated. Run the simulation and print the probability (Number of Five-of-a-kind rolls divided by total rolls).

Explanation / Answer

from random import randrange

def main():
    msg()
    chances = getInput()
    foak = rollNtimes(chances)
    printSummary(foak,chances)


def msg():
    print('''A Dice Simulation to check probability rolling five-of-a-kind in single roll.''')


#ask how many times to simulate rolling dices
def getInput():
    number = eval(raw_input(' Please enter no.of times you want to roll the dices: '))
    return number


def rollNtimes(chances):
   
    foak = 0
    #roll to the no.of times limit
    for i in range(chances):
       
        result = rollOneTime()   
        foak = diceCheck(result,foak)
   
    return foak


#running each times roll all the dices
def rollOneTime():
   
    result = 'no'
    i = 0
   
    #first dice stop rolling.
    x = diceRandom()
   
  
    while diceRandom() == x:
        i = i+1
   
    #if all 5 dices has the same value store result  
    if i == 4:
        result = 'yes'

    return result


#checking if the result get five-of-a-kind
def diceCheck(result,foak):
   
    if result == 'yes':
        foak = foak+1

    return foak

#random dice whice has value between 1-6
def diceRandom():  
    x = randrange(1,7)
    return x
def printSummary(foak,times):
    print(' For {} times we get FOAK {} times which is {:0.2%}'.format(times,foak,foak/times))
main()
