Challenge #168: Dice Game - Born to Solve

[jbrowne02]

I attended this session at the conference so I had a head start but here is my solution.

My solution, funny one :)

I could not arrive at the same conclusion on the output; here is why.

I calculate there are (6*6*6) = 216 possible permutations; however, there are only 180 where Dice1 is greater than Dice2 or Dice 2 is greater than Dice 1, which is the same as Dice1 != Dice2. The mode of those 180 calculations is 7 and happens 12 times.

Where did I go wrong?

Fun stuff. I had a brain seizure along the way and found the expected value first.
