gollark: The actual relevant dice rolling bit is about 10 lines.

gollark: I think the basic idea is that while rolling a single die results in each result having the same probability, with multiple dice more than one different individual roll combinations can add up to some results. So the distribution is spikier.

gollark: I don't. I just made a convenient thing to graph the probability of rolling each number a while ago.

gollark: How much of it, anyway?

gollark: Not sure that needs a ping...
