Risk Simulator is a small Python3 script for simulating the dice rolls in the board game Risk.
risk.py takes two arguments: the number of attacking units and the number of defending units. It will then simulate the battle with all its dice rolls.
Example:
$ python3 risk.py 3 2could create the following output:
Attacker has 3 units
Defender has 2 units
[6, 2, 1] vs. [4, 3]
Defender unit dies (1 left)
Attacker unit dies (2 left)
[4, 1] vs. [2]
Defender unit dies (0 left)
Attacker wins with 2 units leftriskstats.py will simulate a specified number of independent games and output the statistical results.
To simulate 50 games where the attacker has 15 units and the defender has 12 units:
$ python3 riskstats.py 15 12 50
Games won:
Attacker: 38 (76.0%)
Defender: 12 (24.0%)riskstrategy.py takes the number of the opponent's units, the number of units you want to win with and the desired probability as arguments.
$ python3 riskstrategy.py 15 5 80
Objective:
win against 15 opposing units
with at least 5 units left
with a probability of at least 80 percent
Attack with at least 22 unitsThe latter two arguments can be omitted and will be initialized with default values:
$ python3 riskstrategy.py 10
Objective:
win against 10 opposing units
with at least 1 units left
with a probability of at least 75 percent
Attack with at least 13 units
