The
switch
statement is fairly self-explanatory. If
GUESS_TYPE
is
GUESS_33
,
then the guess is 33. Likewise, if the guess type is 22, the guess is set to 22. In the
other two cases, we generate random guesses based on the parameters shown.
For example, if the guesser is one of those who is guessing randomly, we simply
ask our number generator for a number between 0 and 100 via the call
DieRoller.
SingleDie( 101 )
. This returns a uniform distribution. All of the possibilities are
equal.
If the guesser is one of the semi-logical guessers we identified earlier in the
chapter, we ask for a random guess from the normal distribution called for by
the parameters:
