Question

I am trying to program a dice game in Visual Studios c++ but am having trouble. The program allows the user to choose the number of rolls, not exceeding 100,000. I am trying to print out the number of times each number(1-6) was rolled, but it's not working. What am I doing wrong? The link below is a copy of my code.

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>   
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int n;
int dice[6] = {0,0,0,0,0,0};
srand (time(NULL));
cout<<"Enter the number of rolls: "<<endl;
cin >> n;
for(int i=0; i<n;i++) {
int roll = rand() % 6 + 1;
dice[roll-1]++;
}
for(int i=0;i<6;i++) {
cout<<"The number of times each number "<<(i+1)<<" was rolled: "<<dice[i]<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

Output:

$g++ -std=c++11 -o main *.cpp
$main
Enter the number of rolls: 
The number of times each number 1 was rolled: 185
The number of times each number 2 was rolled: 138
The number of times each number 3 was rolled: 173
The number of times each number 4 was rolled: 168
The number of times each number 5 was rolled: 178
The number of times each number 6 was rolled: 158
