dice program

[sunny_awesome]

Problem statement :
Dice: The module random contains functions that generate random numbers in a variety of ways.
The function randint() returns an integer in the range you provide. The following code returns a number between 1 and 6:
from random import randint
x = randint(1, 6)
Make a class Die with one attribute called sides, which has a default value of 6.
Write a method called roll_die() that prints a random number between 1 and the number of sides the die has.
Make a 6-sided die and roll it 10 times.Make a 10-sided die and a 20-sided die. Roll each die 10 times.

My try:

from random import randint
class Dice(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.sides=6
        
    def roll_dice(self):
        x=randint(1,self.sides)
        print(x)
        
dice_roll1=Dice()
dice_roll1.roll_dice(10)

I'm getting this error:

Error:

    dice_roll1.roll_dice(10)                                                                                                                               
TypeError: roll_dice() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

Please help me clear this error

can you explain why do you pass 10 as argument to Dice.roll_dice() method?
Because it is the problem. When you call a class method it always get the instance as first argument (that's self argument for)

So to start from beginning

you need to have sides argument in the __init__() method. It has to have default value of 6. So when you don't pass something different or nothing at all it will be 6-sides dice. But for example if you instantiate dice and pass sides=10, it will be 10-sides dice.

To roll the dice 10 times you need a loop

Thank you so much buran. I modified the code and got the results
