Preliminary

  • Due Date: Thursday, April 25 at 12:30
  • You may complete this assignment with one partner.

Background

  • In the game of Yahtzee, five six-sided dice are rolled.
  • For this assignment, you will simulate a simplified version of Yahtzee.
  • In this simplified version of Yahtzee, a yahtzee occurs when all five dice show the same number (for example, 3-3-3-3-3).
  • In this simplified version of Yahtzee, a full house occurs when three dice show one number and two dice show another (for example, 4-4-2-4-2).
  • In this simplified version of Yahtzee, a large straight occurs when the five numbers can be arranged consecutively from either 1 thru 5 or from 2 thru 6 (for example, 1-3-4-2-5 or 5-2-4-6-3).

Assignment

  • Download lab04.py, rename it according to the instructions above, and make sure you understand it.
  • Take the program above and modify it by adding the missing functions so that when the program is run, it might produce this output. Do not change any of the existing Python code.

Requirements and Grading

  • 3 points - Yahtzees are identified correctly.
  • 3 points - Full houses are identified correctly.
  • 4 points - Large straights are identified correctly.

Submission

Place the solution in a file named yahtzee_[yourname].py and submit it to the Petra Portal no later than 12:45 on Thursday, April 25.
