6. Dice Inheritance

One die, two dice.

Write a child class,**LoadedDie**, of the parent class, Die.

Set the die’s sides.

The parent class, Die, has a parameter: sides.

The child class, LoadedDie, has the parameters, sides, bias, bias_count.

Bias is a die value with extra chances of getting it, set by bias_count.

Both classes have the instance variables: sides and face_list.

In the Die class, the die values, face_list, start at 1 and go to the number of sides.

The Die class has the methods: make_face_list(), get_die() and roll_die().

The LoadedDie class has the method: make_face_list_biased().

Tasks

1. Write a LoadedDie class as a child class of the Die class using the scaffold below.

   from random import choice
   
   
   class Die:
       """dice simulator"""
   
       def __init__(self, sides=6):
           self.sides = sides
           self.face_list = self.make_face_list(sides)
   
       def make_face_list(self, sides):
           face_list = [i for i in range(1, sides + 1)]
           return face_list
   
       def get_die(self):
           print(f"The die has sides: {self.             }")
   
       def roll_die(self):
           return choice(self.           )
   
   
   class LoadedDie(Die):
       def __init__(self, sides=6,       =6,           =4):
           super().__init__(sides=6)
           self.face_list = self.make_face_list_biased(sides, bias, bias_count)
   
       def make_face_list_biased(self, sides,     ,            ):
           biased_list = [i for i in range(1, sides + 1)] + [bias] * bias_count
           return biased_list
   
   
   die0 = Die(sides=6)
   die0.get_die()
   for i in range(36):
       print(die0.roll_die(), end=" ")
   
   print("\n")
   die6 = LoadedDie(sides=6, bias=6, bias_count=4)
   die6.get_die()
   for i in range(36):
       print(die6.roll_die(), end=" ")
   

Q1

Write a LoadedDie class as a child class of the Die class.

from random import choice


class Die:
    """dice simulator"""

    def __init__(self, sides=6):
        self.sides = sides
        self.face_list = self.make_face_list(sides)

    def make_face_list(self, sides):
        face_list = [i for i in range(1, sides + 1)]
        return face_list

    def get_die(self):
        print(f"The die has sides: {self.face_list}")

    def roll_die(self):
        return choice(self.face_list)


class LoadedDie(Die):
    def __init__(self, sides=6, bias=6, bias_count=4):
        super().__init__(sides=6)
        self.face_list = self.make_face_list_biased(sides, bias, bias_count)

    def make_face_list_biased(self, sides, bias, bias_count):
        biased_list = [i for i in range(1, sides + 1)] + [bias] * bias_count
        return biased_list


die0 = Die(sides=6)
die0.get_die()
for i in range(36):
    print(die0.roll_die(), end=" ")

print("\n")
die6 = LoadedDie(sides=6, bias=6, bias_count=4)
die6.get_die()
for i in range(36):
    print(die6.roll_die(), end=" ")
