Craps Python
If, however, we can be of any help, Craps In Python don’t hesitate to contact the team of directly via email with any queries you might have and Craps In Python on any topic. Bingo Hit a lucky line and win the prize in this game of chance. Example: the game of craps¶ For the first example, we’ll write a program that allows a user to play the game of “craps”. It is played by rolling a pair of dice. Normally, the player (and spectators) bet on the outcome. We assume that a player starts with a fixed amount of money, called the “bankroll.” Craps.
If you think coding a dice in Python is hard you are complete wrong! You don’t need 800 lines to do it, 5 is more than enough.

Welcome everybody! Today we will make a simple dice simulator from scratch. If you are just starting to code, this tutorial is for you.
If you need a simpler tutorial I suggest you to take a look at this tutorial: hello world! in Python
Lets start by opening Python. Go to Windows main menu and select IDLE.
Now, lets click File >> New file. Here is where we will write our code.
First we import the library that allows us to choose random numbers.
Now, we generate a random number and save it in a variable. We will call it selected.
This library has a function called randint(). The randint(min number, max number) requires 2 parameters (the lowest number and the highest number between we will pick our number randomly). In this case, our dice goes between 1-6.
If we want to show our selected number, we must use print(). Your code should look like this:
If we press F5, a message will ask us to save the code and then it will start running. If everything went as expected, we should see something like this:
In my case, the random chosen number was 5. If we close the console and run the code again pressing F5, the chosen number will be different.
Nice, we already have our main engine working, now it’s time to make it look more appealing. To do that we will add some improvements:
If we run the code again, we should see a little message and the random number. Congrats! but we can improve it even more. Our code runs only once and then it close. What we need is to keep it running. To accomplish this, we will used while.
If you run this code, you will see that the dice will keep rolling as long as you press any key.
We could keep improving the code even more, but lets leave it here until another day. This example is great to start coding in python. Hope you liked it and see you soon!

Features
Easy to get started. Thonny comes with Python 3.7 built in, so just one simple installer is needed and you're ready to learn programming. (You can also use a separate Python installation, if necessary.) The initial user interface is stripped of all features that may distract beginners. |
No-hassle variables. Once you're done with hello-worlds, select View → Variables and see how your programs and shell commands affect Python variables. |
Simple debugger. Just press Ctrl+F5 instead of F5 and you can run your programs step-by-step, no breakpoints needed. Press F6 for a big step and F7 for a small step. Steps follow program structure, not just code lines. |
Step through expression evaluation. If you use small steps, then you can even see how Python evaluates your expressions. You can think of this light-blue box as a piece of paper where Python replaces subexpressions with their values, piece-by-piece. |
Faithful representation of function calls. Stepping into a function call opens a new window with separate local variables table and code pointer. Good understanding of how function calls work is especially important for understanding recursion. |
Highlights syntax errors. Unclosed quotes and parentheses are the most common beginners' syntax errors. Thonny's editor makes these easy to spot. |
Explains scopes. Highlighting variable occurrences reminds you that the same name doesn't always mean the same variable and helps spotting typos. Local variables are visually distinguished from globals. |
Mode for explaining references. Variables are initially presented according to simplified model (name → value) but you can switch to more realistic model (name → address/id → value). |
Code completion. Students can explore APIs with the help of code completion. |
Beginner friendly system shell. Select Tools → Open system shell to install extra packages or learn handling Python on command line. PATH and conflicts with other Python interpreters are taken care of by Thonny. |
Simple and clean pip GUI. Select Tools → Manage packages for even easier installation of 3rd party packages. |
Demo
Credits
Main development of Thonny took place in Institute of Computer Science of University of Tartu, Estonia.
Development of several features in Thonny 3.0 was proposed and supported by Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Since September 2018 development of Thonny is partially supported by Cybernetica AS.
We are also grateful for the help of several contributors from the open-source community around the world.
