Exercise

Determine your next move

In the Empire State Building bet, your next move depends on the number you get after throwing the dice. We can perfectly code this with an if-elif-else construct!

The sample code assumes that you're currently at step 50. Can you fill in the missing pieces to finish the script? numpy is already imported as np and the seed has been set to 123, so you don't have to worry about that anymore.

Instructions

100 XP
  • Roll the dice. Use randint() to create the variable dice.
  • Finish the if-elif-else construct by replacing ___:
  • If dice is 1 or 2, you go one step down.
  • if dice is 3, 4 or 5, you go one step up.
  • Else, you throw the dice again. The number on the dice is the number of steps you go up.
  • Print out dice and step. Given the value of dice, was step updated correctly?
