Question

I need two methods. The first method throws four dice and returns the dice sum. The second method estimates the sum and print “excellent” if the sum is greater than 20, “good” if the sum is greater 12 or sum is less than or equal to 20 and “poor” if the sum is less than or equal to 12.

The dice are thrown by writing the rows

Random ran = new Random ();
int throwingdice = ran.nextInt(1,7);

i tried many times but it wont work, any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

this should help you get started…

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Random r = new Random();

            int sum=0;
            for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
            {
                var roll = r.Next(1, 7);
                sum += roll;
            }
            // sum should be the sum of the four dices
            Console.WriteLine("the sum of the first 4 throws is {0}", sum);

            if (sum > 20)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("place your message in here stating that sum gas greater than 20");
            }
            else if (sum < 10)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("sum is less than 10");
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("some other message");
            }
        }
    }
}
