I want to write a program that rolls a dice. Now this is what I have :
import random
print("You rolled",random.randint(1,6))
And I also want to be able to do something like this:
print("Do you want to roll again? Y/N")
and then if I press Y it rolls again and if I press N I quit the app. Thanks in advance!
Let's walk through the process:
You already know what you need to generate random numbers.
import random
(or you could be more specific and say from random import randint
, because we only need randint
in this program)
- As you've already said it;
print("You rolled",random.randint(1,6))
"rolls the dice".
but it does it only once, so you need a loop to repeat it. A while loop is calling to us.
- You need to check if the user inputs
Y
. And you can simply do it with "Y" in input()
.
code version 1.
import random
repeat = True
while repeat:
print("You rolled",random.randint(1,6))
print("Do you want to roll again? Y/N")
repeat = "Y" in input()
code version 1.1 (A little better)
from random import randint
repeat = True
while repeat:
print("You rolled",randint(1,6))
print("Do you want to roll again?")
repeat = ("y" or "yes") in input().lower()
In this code, the user is free to use strings like yEs
, y
, yes
, YES
and ... to continue the loop.
Now remember, in version 1.1, since I used from random import randint
instead of import random
, I don't need to say random.randint(1, 6)
and simply radint(1,6)
will do the job.
import random
def dice_simulate():
number = random.randint(1,6)
print(number)
while(1):
flag = str(input("Do you want to dice it up again:Enter 1 and if not enter 0"))
if flag == '1':
number = random.randint(1,6)
print(number)
else:
print("ending the game")
return
dice_simulate()

This is for python 3
import random
repeat="Y"
while repeat == "Y":
print("Rolling the dice")
print(random.randint(1,6))
repeat =input("Do you wanna roll again Y/N?")
if repeat=="Y":
continue
I just started learning Python three days ago, but this is what I came up with for Python 3, and it works:
import random
question = input('Would you like to roll the dice [y/n]?\n')
while question != 'n':
if question == 'y':
die1 = random.randint(1, 6)
die2 = random.randint(1, 6)
print(die1, die2)
question = input('Would you like to roll the dice [y/n]?\n')
else:
print('Invalid response. Please type "y" or "n".')
question = input('Would you like to roll the dice [y/n]?\n')
print('Good-bye!')
from random import randint
ques = input('Do you want to dice Y/N : ')
while ques.upper() == 'Y':
print(f'your number is {randint(1,6)}')
ques = input('Do you want to roll again !!')
else:
print('Thank you For Playing')
import random
min = 1
max = 6
roll_again = "yes"
roll_again = raw_input
while roll_again == "yes" or roll_again == "y":
print ("Rolling the dices...")
print ("The values are....")
print (random.randint(min, max))
print (random.randint(min, max))
roll_again = raw_input("Roll the dices again?")
