[meaning of life 42]

what if i use a capital D!

42D = 1509237645

WTF???????!?!?!?!?

what happened here?

[rolandofthewhite]

A 2D die is flat, like paper, so it only has 2 sides.

[meaning of life 42]

but that's just the thing. there's a 4 infront of it.


42D1 = 153794199



see! i put a 4 in front of it.

[Mr. Flay]

This should be an interesting test:

Original Roll String: 3d6

3 6-Sided Dice: (6, 1, 5) = 12

Wait for it...

JEEP, I was able to force this number much higher than average. I don't think I'll say how at this time, but I'll PM you...

If you are in a forum where people can edit their posts, you should pay close attention and only play with the person if you trust them.

Go ahead and tell me how.

Testing.

Original Roll String: 69d69

69 69-Sided Dice: (11, 54, 31, 1, 8, 2, 37, 47, 60, 1, 28, 68, 7, 30, 11, 44, 41, 66, 25, 22, 7, 50, 44, 61, 28, 41, 29, 28, 8, 31, 38, 51, 25, 63, 9, 62, 37, 26, 42, 10, 18, 55, 62, 39, 67, 41, 63, 45, 17, 41, 8, 57, 29, 64, 62, 63, 27, 26, 29, 61, 17, 39, 29, 48, 22, 57, 22, 1, 54) = 2447

BIG TEST.

seventeen d four = 38152564


WTF is going on now?

[jeep]

well, I have a new version that will give different error messages. Basically, it assumes you are trying to make three rolls (because of the spaces.)

-JEEP

[meaning of life 42]

so i should say seventeendfour = 1441469214 right?



wow, that worked out so much better.

[jeep]

Here's what the code that gets released tomorrow will output:

Original Roll String: seventeendfour
seventeen four-Sided Dice Results: ('seventeen' must mean 1): Uh... four? I never heard of a 'four' sided die

Kind of funny, but the dice roller only understands numeric characters, not alphabetic characters.

-JEEP

[meaning of life 42]

ok, well let's see if your code works yet.

seventeendfour = 1614364354


and not yet......

[Mr. Flay]

MOL, I suspect you're not understanding. The dice roller is not *designed* to understand "seventeen". It only understands numeric input separated by the "d" character, such as 17d4. Stop trying to get it to do something funny, or at least stop expecting it to give you different results when JEEP told you what it accepts as valid input.

[meaning of life 42]

i know, but jeep said he's changing the response for that to what he said before.

[jeep]

You won't need to repost to see the change.

-JEEP

[meaning of life 42]

haha. i love that reslut. it's awsome.

[esme]

Original Roll String: 1d6 (STATIC)

1 6-Sided Dice: (5) = 5

[esme]

Original Roll String: 1d6

1 6-Sided Dice: (3) = 3

[Stam]

I don't understand. What do you post to get this "Fixed"

Original Roll String: 2d7 (STATIC)

2 7-Sided Dice: (1, 1) = 2

ah, now I get it, you use the "edit" function

[Stam]

Let me try something

Original Roll String: 1d6 (STATIC)

1 6-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[esme]

Original Roll String: 1d6

1 6-Sided Dice: (6) = 6

[esme]

Original Roll String: 1d6

1 6-Sided Dice: (4) = 4

[esme]

Original Roll String: 1d6

1 6-Sided Dice: (5) = 5
