Project 48: Max of Three Dice
Suppose you were to roll three fair dice. What is the probability that the maximum of the three dice is 5 or greater?
Project 48: Simulate MANY (at least 100,000) trials of rolling three dice. Estimate the probability that the maximum of the three dice is 5 or greater.
Task: Appropriately assign the value to 'proportion' that represents the probability.
Note: There are two working randomization methods available 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

Universal Computational Math Methods:
pow(5,2) returns 25.0
abs(-3.0) returns 3
sqrt(49.0) returns 7.0
