  1. Consider rolling two six-sided dice. While the result of each throw is independent of all rolls that have come before, we can still calculate the odds of rolling any given number between 2 and 12. This program will calculate those odds by generating a large number (100,000) of random values (i.e. "rolling the dice") and storing the results in an array. When all values have been rolled, we will display the results (counts and odds to 2 decimal places) to the user.
  x   x   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10  11  12     //value for sum of 2 dice rolls +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+--- |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |    //counters for number of times value is rolled +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+   0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9  10  11  12     //array index

In Lab 5, sample code was provided for generating a random number. In this lab, I've provided a header file for you to include, getRandomLib.h, which lets you get all kinds of random things.

We need some functions:
  • void displayMessage();  //hello, goodbye, etc.
  • int rollDice();  //returns a number between 2 and 12 (by rolling two dice and summing the result)
  • void displayResults(int[]);  //displays results in the array

HINT: Make sure to initialize counters before starting loop

HINT: To calculate odds: odds = count * 100 / NUM_ROLLS;

  • Header comments must be present
  • Prototypes must be present if functions are used
  • Hello and goodbye messages must be shown
  • Array(s) must be used for implementation
  • Results should be formatted neatly (2 decimal places for odds, decimals lined up, etc.)
  • Use comments and good style practices

Make sure to #include "getRandomLib.h". Download the attached header file and place in same location as your program.
