ABSTRACT
The simplest form of the randomness is the die roll. In the common use, it is assumed that a single die has six sides, but there are many kinds of dice: dice with four faces, eight, ten, twelve, or twenty are commonly used in many tabletop games. Another important property of the dice—in fact, one of the defining characteristics of them—is that each individual die roll is independent, meaning that it is not influenced by any past or the future events. The term probability is sometimes used interchangeably with “odds,” though the two have different meanings. The odds of an event happening are given as a ratio of the two numbers, where the first number is how many times the event happens and the second number is how many times it doesn’t, out of the total of the two numbers.
