In this video course, you’ll learn how to create a Python dice roll simulator. The course guides you through building a text-based user interface (TUI) application that simulates rolling dice using Python’s random module. You’ll learn to gather and validate user input, use random.randint() for dice rolling, and display results with ASCII art.

By the end of this video course, you’ll understand that:

  • To simulate dice-rolling events, you can use random.randint() .
  • To get the user’s input, you use the built-in input() function.
  • To display dice in Python, you generate ASCII art representations of dice faces and use print().
  • To manipulate strings, you use methods such as .center() and .join().
