dicetables v2.5.0

Calculate the Combinations For Any Set of Dice

Have you ever wondered what the chances were for killing that 25 hp creature with your lvl-5 fireball? Of course you have(it’s 3.24%. Good luck with that). What about if you could use your loaded dice that roll 6 twice as often. We’ve got you covered (still only a 10% chance). Want to make sure you’ll win a bet on a number spread for DND dice randomly grabbed from a bag? No problem(“i’ll bet you can’t roll 150-200 on 7D4, 4D8, 5D12 and 4D20” … because it’s a 0.3% chance). Ever wondered what would happen if you flipped a coin a thousand times? (Your chance of flipping heads more than 600 times is 0.000000009%.)

Impress your friends. Wow the gender of your choice - with …. DICETABLES!!!

Getting Started

This module has no dependencies and no requirements. So to get started, simply:

$ pip install dicetables

or:

$ git clone https://github.com/eric-s-s/dice-tables.git
$ cd dice-tables
$ python setup.py install

The basic objects to use are DiceTable or DetailedDiceTable, and any of the dice classes. They are:

  • Die

  • ModDie

  • WeightedDie

  • ModWeightedDie

  • Modifier

  • StrongDie

  • Exploding

  • ExplodingOn

  • BestOfDicePool

  • WorstOfDicePool

  • UpperMidOfDicePool

  • LowerMidOfDicePool

for details about the dice, see The Dice. for details about the dice-tables see DiceTable and DetailedDiceTable

These are all immutable objects. When you add dice to a DiceTable, it returns a new object and doesn’t alter the original. Use the DiceTable.new() class method to create an empty DiceTable.

>>> import dicetables as dt
>>> empty = dt.DiceTable.new()
>>> empty
<DiceTable containing []>
>>> empty.add_die(dt.Die(6), times=10)
<DiceTable containing [10D6]>
>>> empty
<DiceTable containing []>
>>> table = empty.add_die(dt.Die(4), times=3)
>>> table = table.add_die(dt.Die(10), times=5)
>>> table.get_list()
[(Die(4), 3), (Die(10), 5)]
>>> print(table.get_dict())  # This is each roll and how many times it occurs.
{8: 1,
 9: 8,
 10: 36,
 11: 120,
 12: 327,
 ...
 ...
 55: 3072,
 56: 1608,
 57: 768,
 58: 327,
 59: 120,
 60: 36,
 61: 8,
 62: 1}

To get more detailed information, use EventsCalculations. It can get the mean, stddev, a nice string of the combinations, points and axes for graphing, and stats for any set of rolls.

>>> calculator = dt.EventsCalculations(table)
>>> calculator.mean()
35.0
>>> calculator.stddev(decimal_place=8)
6.70820393
>>> calculator.stats_strings(list(range(8, 20)) + [35] + list(range(50, 63)))
StatsStrings(query_values='8-19, 35, 50-62',
             query_occurrences='515,778',
             total_occurrences='6,400,000',
             one_in_chance='12.41',
             pct_chance='8.059')
>>> calculator.percentage_points()
[(8, 1.5624999999999997e-05),
 (9, 0.00012499999999999998),
 (10, 0.0005625),
 ...
 (59, 0.001875),
 (60, 0.0005625),
 (61, 0.00012499999999999998),
 (62, 1.5624999999999997e-05)]
>>> big_table = dt.DetailedDiceTable.new().add_die(dt.Die(6), 1000)
>>> print(big_table.calc.full_table_string())  # DetailedDiceTable owns an EventsCalculations
1000: 1
1001: 1,000
1002: 500,500
1003: 1.672e+8
1004: 4.192e+10
1005: 8.417e+12
...
3513: 1.016e+776
3514: 1.012e+776
3515: 1.007e+776
3516: 1.001e+776
3517: 9.957e+775
3518: 9.898e+775
...
5998: 500,500
5999: 1,000

ChangeLog

since v2.1.0

  • EventsCalculations added functions log10_points and log10_axes

  • New dice: Exploding(other_die, explosions=2), ExplodingOn(other_die, explodes_on, explosions=2)

  • see The Dice. and Events info for details

  • New object: Parser - It converts strings to dice objects.

since v2.2.0

  • Improved ExplodingOn speed.

  • Added parse_die_within_limits function to parser. Also added limit values. Changed getters to properties.

from v2.4.0 to v2.4.4

  • fixed error where parse_die_within_limits failed when using default values for dice.

  • Parser can parse strings with leading and trailing whitespaces.

  • parse_die_within_limits now raises LimitsError

  • added max_power_for_commaed option to EventsCalculations.full_table_string.

  • added max_power_for_commaed and min_power_for_fixed_pt to EventsCalculations.stats_strings.

v2.5.0

  • added DicePool die objects:
    • BestOfDicePool

    • WorstOfDicePool

    • UpperMidOfDicePool

    • LowerMidOfDicePool

  • Parser().add_die_size_limit_kwarg and Parser().add_explosions_limit_kwarg are removed. Use Parser().add_limits_kwarg
