Throw query format

{n}d{m}(k{p}) where:

• n: number of dice to throw
• m: number of faces of each dice
• p: number of best dice results to keep

Examples: 2d6, 3d10, 7d6k3.

Prompt use

> Throw query:

Requires a string that must follow the Throw query format.

> Versus throw query (leave empty to ignore)

Can be a string that must follow the Throw query format or be empty in order to skip.
If provided, it will generate win probabilities for first throw quiery against this one.

Command use

The only argument required is a string query following the Throw query format.

Command Option

Iterations

• Syntax: -i
• Type: int
• Default: 1000000
• Example: > ./dice-stats -i=10000 2d6

Number of iterations to use in order to define probabilities accuracy.

Versus

• Syntax: -vs
• Type: string using throw query format
• Default: none
• Example: > ./dice-stats -vs=3d6 2d6

Use another dice throw and compare chances to win against this one.

Example

Generate probability distribution for throwing 2 dice with 6 faces:

> ./dice-stats 2d6

Generate probability distribution for throwing 3 dice with 10 faces:

> ./dice-stats 3d10

Generate probability distribution for throwing 7 dice with 6 faces and keeping the 3 best results:

> ./dice-stats 7d6k3

Generate probability distribution of winning throwing 7 dice with 6 faces and keeping the 3 best results against 5 dice with 6 faces and keeping the 3 best:

> ./dice-stats -vs=5d6k3 7d6k3

Generate probability distribution of winning throwing 17 dice with 4 faces and keeping the 9 best results against 25 dice with 4 faces and keeping the 6 best:

> ./dice-stats -vs=25d4k6 17d4k9
