Question

With the use of python IDLE version 3.7.2, use the while loop that iterates 100,000 times. In the loop code, roll a pair of dice by generating(and summing) two random numbers in the range 1 through 6. Report to the user how many data points have been generated (i.e how many times the dice have been rolled), as in: successfully simulated 100,000 dice rolls. Create a histogram of the dice rolls showing how many times a 2 was rolled, how many times a 3 was rolled, and so on up to 12. Your output must be formatted as follows and written to an output file, roll_count.txt: Distribution for 100,000 data points(each '>' counts as 500 rolls): 12: >>>>> (2752) 11: >>>>>>>>>> (5657) 10: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (8293) 9: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (11017)

Thanks for the question.

Below is the code you will be needing  Let me know if you have any doubts or if you need anything to change.

Thank You !

import random

def roll_die_pair():
    return random.randint(1, 6), random.randint(1, 6)

def main():
    rolls = 100000

    roll_freq_dict = {2: 0, 3: 0, 4: 0, 5: 0, 6: 0, 7: 0, 8: 0, 9: 0, 10: 0, 11: 0, 12: 0}
    for _ in range(rolls):
        diceOne, diceTwo = roll_die_pair()
        total = diceOne + diceTwo
        roll_freq_dict[total]+=1

    for roll_sum,freq in roll_freq_dict.items():
        print('{} rolled {} times'.format(roll_sum,freq))

main()
