Project 24: Getting Out of Jail in Monopoly
To “Get out of Jail” in Monopoly a player has to roll doubles on a pair of dice, which means both dice result in the same number.
Estimate the probability that you would have to roll at least 7 times before you obtain doubles.
Project 24: Simulate MANY trials and determine the proportion of trials in which you would have to roll at least 7 times to obtain doubles. Appropriately assign the variable 'probability' to represent the probability that a person would have to roll at least 7 times to obtain doubles.
Note: There are two working randomization methods to use.
random() returns a random number from [0,1)
Example: r = random(); //r holds a value between 0 and 1 (not including 1).
randomInt(lower, upper) returns a random integer between lower and upper inclusive
Example: i = randomInt(2,7); //i holds one of the values: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and they are all equally likely

pow(5,2) returns 25.0
abs(-3.0) returns 3
sqrt(49.0) returns 7.0
