gollark: Unlikely.
gollark: That would involve parsing.
gollark: ```python @bot.command(help="Roll simulated dice (basic NdX syntax, N <= 50, X <= 1e6).") async def roll(ctx, dice): match = re.match("([-0-9]*)d([0-9]+)", dice) if not match: raise ValueError("Invalid dice notation") n, x = match.groups() if n == "": n = 1 n, x = int(n), int(x) if n > 50 or x > 1e6: raise ValueError("N or X exceeds limit") rolls = [ random.randint(1, x) for _ in range(n) ] await ctx.send(f"{sum(rolls)} ({' '.join(map(str, sorted(rolls)))})")```
gollark: Nope.
gollark: Fiona's rolldice, while excellently something, could not be used safely on untrusted input.
