Python Dice Game Example with Virtual Player

In this Python tutorial, we will learn to define and execute some intermediate to advanced Python functions by creating a python dice game example.  In this Python tutorial, I am running Python IDLE (Python GUI) version 3.7.2

Within the Python functions, one will be able to pass data, which are known as parameters and the function will return the result as data.

Python Rolling Dice Game Functions

• Ask user for input of name
• Create virtual names of the second player to be chosen at random on each play
  • Virtual Mars
  • Virtual Jupiter
  • Virtual Neptune
  • Virtual Saturn
  • Virtual Earth
  • Virtual Venus
  • Virtual Uranus
  • Virtual Mercury
• Create variables of the dice that are random number generators – min number of 1 and max number of 6
• if/elif statements for equal, greater and larger than to validate the winner of the game
• while statement to keep the game active until the player decided to stop playing

Import Python Packages

Range Number Variables

User Name Input and Upper Case Name Variable

Create virtual second player names (Planet Names)

Random name selection for second player

while Loop to Keep Playing or Exit

• Keep Playing = yes
• Stop Playing = no and exit the game
• Pick x and y random number
• Define the dice number from the min and max variables
• if statement to validate who wins or a draw for the game

I hope this Python tutorial on creating a a rolling dice game was helpful.
