The internal plugin DiceStatisticsPlugin allows you to apply basic statistical calculations on dice rolls.
The sum method gives you the sum of all dice:
3.d.sum
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,6,5]. Then, the sum is 12.
The count method just returns the number of dice of a roll.
The best_die method returns the highest die of a roll:
3.d.best_die
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,5,2]. Then, the best die is 5.
The worst_die method returns the lowest die of a roll:
3.d.worst_die
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,5,2]. Then, the worst die is 1.
The mean method calculates the mean of a dice roll:
3.d.mean
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,5,2]. Then, the mean is 2.6667, or 8/3.
The median method calculates the median of a dice roll:
3.d.median
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,5,2]. Then, the median is 2.
Another example:
6.d.median
Let's say that the expression 6.d returned [1,3,2,4,6,1]. Then, the median is 2.5, or (2+3)/2.
The mode method calculates the mode of a dice roll:
3.d.mode
Let's say that the expression 3.d returned [1,5,2]. Then, the mode is [] since all elements appears only once.
Another example:
6.d.mode
Let's say that the expression 6.d returned [1,3,2,4,6,1]. Then, the mode is 1.
The last example:
5.d.mode
Let's say that the expression 5.d returned [1,3,1,2,3]. Then, the mode is [1,3].
