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
