What should the output look like?

You should see each roll and a grand total at the end.

📖

How this works

random.randint(1, 6) picks a number between 1 and 6 — like one roll of a die. A for loop does the same thing many times, and a total variable adds each roll up as we go.

Your turn — try these

1Change the dice to 20-sided (1..20) instead of 6-sided.
2Print "double!" when two dice in a row show the same number.
3Print how many of your rolls were exactly 6.
