xdice

xdice is a lightweight python library for managing dice, scores, and dice-notation patterns.

It allows to easily interpret literal expressions as rolls of dice (‘1d6’, ‘3d4+3’, ‘12d6+1d4’…etc.), then manipulate the results.

#### Python Versions

DiceRollParser has been tested with python 3.3+

#### Examples:

import dice

## Roll simple dices with rolldice()

score = rolldice(6, amount=2)

# manipulates score as an integer

print( score, score * 2, score == 11 ) >> 11 22 True

# Iterates over the results

for result in score:
print(result)

>> 5 >> 6

# Parse patterns with roll()

ps = roll(“2d6+18”)

print( ps, ps.format() ) >> 28 ‘[5,6]+18’

#### CLI

Run python roll.py [options] <expr>

Usage:
roll [options] <expr>
Options:
-s Numeric score only
