Roll Your Fate!
Fate Dice, a fudge dice, are used in many role-playing games. The dice pictured above is just one variety of fudge dice used. These Fate Dice are four six-sided dice consisting of two pluses, two blanks, and two minuses on each die.
Therefore, on a single roll of a die, the roller has 1/3 chance of getting a plus, blank, or minus on each roll. The program FATEDICE below takes this account and uses a random number generator between -1 (for minus), 0 (for blank), and 1 (for plus). The program draws the result of the four dice on the graphic screen.
The resulting graphic screen has the following parameters:
* All functions and plots turned off.
* All drawing is cleared.
* Xmin = 0, Xmax = 13, Xscl = 1 (x scale)
* Ymin = 0, Ymax = 7, Yscl = 1 (y scale)
