TDC Games Greed Game Game

Product Information

At this point in time, the player may decide to stop rolling and collect the points scored on that particular roll or the player may proceed and attempt to score additional points with the remaining dice available. If a player continues to roll, there are fewer dice and a greater risk of failing to score and losing points. However, should no points be scored on an initial or subsequent roll of the dice, that player loses his turn as well as all points which were accumulated during that round of play. If they don’t roll any ONES, FIVES or other scoring combinations, their turn is over and they must pass the dice to the next player. For 5, does it really make sense to put these constants in global scope if they aren't used outside of their function?

Given that this is part of Python Koans, I'm not looking for any critique of the problem or it's related setup / testing structure. Refactoring it outside means it'll only be initialized once, as opposed to being initialized every time the function runs. However, a player may not choose to end any round of play and leave a die or dice with point value on the felt. When one player reaches 10,000 points (or any final score you decide on), all other players get one more turn to try to beat them. OBJECT: To get scoring dice on every roll, and to be the first player to get more than 10,000 points.Rule 4: If no scoring die or dice are rolled, the player's turn is over and all points accumulated on that turn are lost.

After every roll, the player continues to set aside the die or dice with scoring values and may continue to roll again with the remaining dice available.This may increase the player's chance of winning by increasing the probability of rolling a high scoring combination, since all six dice will be in play on the player's next turn. However, any subsequent roll which turns up no scoring points causes forfeiture and the player loses all points which had been accumulated during that round. The girls toy aisles aren't our regular ball park but we occasionally like to try something different to our norm. Challenged to keep throwing the dice for a better score, players must learn to stop before raw greed overtakes them. The problem comes with an empty def score() and unit tests (I've also added tests to cover my changes to accepting more than 5 rolls).
