📖 Overview
Roll multiple 4-sided dice and track outcomes quickly.
🧪 Example Scenarios
Use these default and higher-pressure example inputs to explore how sensitive this calculator is before using your real numbers.
| Input | Base Case | Higher Pressure Case |
|---|---|---|
| Number Of Dice | 2 | 2.3 |
| Sides Per Die | 4 | 4.6 |
| Number Of Throws | 1 | 1.15 |
⚙️ How It Works
Rolls virtual dice and returns actual per-throw face results and totals so players can use it during live play.
The Formula
Each die result = floor(random() × sides) + 1, repeated for each die and throw.
| Dice | How many dice to roll per throw |
| Sides | Number of faces on each die |
| Throws | How many throws to run in one click |
💡Press Calculate again to reroll and generate a new random set of outcomes.
Quick Reference
| Input | Example Value |

When To Use This
- Use this tool when you need a fast decision during active planning or execution.
- Use this before committing money, time, or tradeoffs that are hard to reverse.
- Use this to compare options using the same assumptions across scenarios.
Edge Cases To Watch
- Results can be misleading if key inputs are missing, stale, or unrealistic.
- Very small or very large values may amplify rounding effects and interpretation risk.
- If assumptions change mid-decision, recalculate before acting.
Practical Tips
💡 Use throws = 1 for normal turn-by-turn play.
💡 Use multiple throws when resolving repeated effects quickly.
💡 Run a best-case, base-case, and worst-case scenario before deciding.
💡 Use recent real values, not ideal assumptions, for better accuracy.
Frequently Asked Questions
