I think the problem comes from the fact that rand(n) returns an integer
between 0 and n-1. In your case, this means that the number 36 will never be
generated, which in turn implies that there are more black numbers (18) than
red (17 since 36 will never be generated). To avoid this, you'll need to
replace rand(36) with rand(37), which generates numbers between 0 and 36. By
the way, you can greatly simplify your code, like this:
colors = {}
[2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 31,33,35].each do |i|
colors[i] = :black
end
[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 30, 32,34,36].each do |i|
colors[i] = :red
end
colors[0] = :zero
results = {:black => 0, :red => 0, :zero => 0}
puts 'How many rolls to simulate'
number_of_rolls = gets.chomp.to_i
number_of_rolls.times do
number = rand(37)
color = colors[number]
results[color] += 1
end
puts "Black: #{results[:black]}"
puts "Red: #{results[:red]}"
puts "Zero: #{results[:zero]}"
What this code does is the following:
* create a hash (called colors) which associates each number with its color,
represented by a symbol. The hash is filled from arrays containing the black
numbers and the red ones (it could also be filled by hand:
colors[1] = :red
colors[2] = :black
...
* create the hash results which will contain the number of times each color is
choosen. Therefore, the hash contains three entries, :black, :red and :zero,
all set to 0
* let the user choose the number of rolls
* for the number of times chosen by the user, do the following
- generate a random number between 0 and 36
- get the color corresponding to the number. This is done by looking at the
value corresponding to the number in the colors hash
- increase by one the result relative to the chosen color
* displays the result
I hope this helps
