The "Awesome Dice Game" is a multiplayer game where N players roll a 6 faced dice in a round-robin fashion. Each time a player rolls the dice their points increase by the number (1 to 6) achieved by the roll.
As soon as a player accumulates M points they complete the game and are assigned a rank. Remaining players continue to play the game till they accumulate at least M points. The game ends when all players have accumulated at least M points.
-
The order in which the users roll the dice is decided randomly at the start of the game. - If a player rolls the value "6" then they immediately get another chance to roll again and move ahead in the game.
-
If a player rolls the value "1" two consecutive times then they are forced to skip their next turn as a penalty.
- Implement a standalone program in your favorite programming language which takes the values N (number of players) and M (points of accumulate) as command line arguments. - Name the players as Player-1 to Player-N and randomly assign the order in which they will roll the dice.
- When it's the turn for Player-X to roll the dice prompt a message like “Player-3 its your turn (press ‘r’ to roll the dice)
- Randomly simulate a dice roll, display the points achieved and add the points to the user’s score.
- Print the current rank table which displays the points of all users and their rank after each roll.
- If the user gets another chance because they rolled a ‘6’ or they are penalised because they rolled ‘1’ twice consecutively then print appropriate message on standard output to inform the user.
- If a user completes the game, print an appropriate message on the output displaying their rank.
