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

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?
