A dice game 2019-03-17
Remo pose la question :
So, little game my kid came up with.

Dice are standard d6.

I roll a die, he rolls a die. If he gets the same number as me OR a bigger number he wins. So far so good. Used the opportunity to get him to calculate the probabilities of him winning, see if I could get him interested into looking at this game from a more academic perspective. He did fine.

Then we upped the ante. He rolls one die, I roll two dice. I his die has a number that is equal or greater than both of mine, he wins.
We had a bit of trouble solving that one, and had to resort to a table with all the results ( 6x36) to figure out where we stood.

Then again we upped. He rolls two dice, I roll two dice. If any one of his dice has a number equal to or greater than both of mine he wins. I only win if one of my dice is greater than both of his. And we got stuck. Figured I would need to find a formula to resolve this one, as our earlier solution ( table everything ) suddenly is 36x36, giving well over a thousand possible results. And if we ever go bigger than that then we *really* are going to need another way to calculate it.
