Task #1 The while Loop
1. Copy the file from the Student Files
or as directed by your instructor. DiceSimulation.java is incomplete. Since
there is a large part of the program missing, the output will be incorrect if you run
DiceSimulation.java.
2. I have declared all the variables. You need to add code to simulate rolling the dice
and keeping track of the doubles. Convert the algorithm below into Java code and
place it in the main method after the variable declarations, but before the output
statements. You will be using several control structures: a while loop and an
if-else-if statement nested inside another if statement. Use the indenting of
the algorithm to help you decide what is included in the loop, what is included in
the if statement, and what is included in the nested if-else-if statement.
3. To “roll” the dice, use the nextInt method of the random number generator to
generate an integer from 1 to 6.
Repeat while the number of dice rolls are less than the number of times the dice should
be rolled.
Get the value of the first die by “rolling” the first die
Get the value of the second die by “rolling” the second die
If the value of the first die is the same as the value of the second die
If value of first die is 1
Increment the number of times snake eyes were rolled
Else if value of the first die is 2
Increment the number of times twos were rolled
Else if value of the first die is 3
Increment the number of times threes were rolled
Else if value of the first die is 4
Increment the number of times fours were rolled
Else if value of the first die is 5
Increment the number of times fives were rolled
Else if value of the first die is 6
Increment the number of times sixes were rolled
Increment the number of times the dice were rolled
4. Compile and run. You should get numbers that are somewhat close to 278 for
each of the different pairs of doubles. Run it several times. You should get
different results than the first time, but again it should be somewhat close to 278.
