Role_The_Dice_Game: A Fun Python Dice Game

Welcome to the world of Python programming! In this blog post, we’ll explore a simple yet entertaining Python project: Role_The_Dice_Game. This interactive game utilizes Python’s random module to simulate rolling two dice. It’s a great way to learn the basics of Python programming while having fun.

Description

The Role_The_Dice_Game project consists of the following components:

Quick Start Guide: Download the Python script or copy the code to a new file. Open the script in a code editor such as IDLE or Visual Studio 2022. Run the script. View the dice results. Enter “yes” to roll again or “no” to end the game. Close the program when finished.

Code

# import random function
import random

# intro message for dice game
print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
print("- Hello and Welcome to The Dice Game!                     -")
print("- Computer will roll two dice values and display to user  -")
print("- User can then enter either options from below:          -")
print("- Enter 'yes' or 'y' to roll again                        -")
print("- or                                                      -")
print("- Enter 'no' 'n' or any other character to stop rolling   -")

# set dice low number and high number (1+6 = 1-6)
dice_min = 1
dice_max = 6

# ask user if they wanna roll again if yes start loop
keep_rolling_dice = "yes"

# while loop to roll dice and continue rolling if user desires
while keep_rolling_dice == "yes" or keep_rolling_dice == "y":

    # print game message showing dice being tossed
    print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
    print("- ** Rolling the Dice Now                              ** -")
    print("- ** Tossed two dice on the board                      ** -")
    print("- ** The dice rolled are                               ** -")
    print("-----------------------------------------------------------")

    # use random to select a value from 1-6 for first dice and assign to dice_roll_one
    dice_roll_one = str(random.randint(dice_min, dice_max))

    # use random to select a value from 1-6 for first dice and assign to dice_roll_two
    dice_roll_two = str(random.randint(dice_min, dice_max))

    # print dice values
    print("------------------  Dice 01  |  Dice 02  ------------------")
    print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
    print("------------------           |           ------------------")
    print("------------------    #####  |  #####    ------------------")
    print("------------------    # " + dice_roll_one + " #  |  # " + dice_roll_two + " #    ------------------")
    print("------------------    #####  |  #####    ------------------")
    print("------------------           |           ------------------")
    print("-----------------------------------------------------------")

    # ask user if they wanna continue rolling dice, is yes then toss more dice. if no or other input, end dice toss
    keep_rolling_dice = input("- Roll the Dices Again or Quit?                           -\n-----------------------------------------------------------\n- > ")
