C# Dice Game

Question

Hey all I've got this dice game that i'm trying to make. It basically a dice version of golf. Each player rolls 3 dice until they roll a double. Each roll before the double is achieved counts as a stroke. Once a double is rolled i want the score for that hole to be displayed on the console. At the moment im still working with notepad and the basic SDK command prompt as this is all i understand. I've attempted some of the code so far but would really appreciate some help finishing it off (in simple terms if possible) Thanks in advance! CODE using System; namespace dicegame1 { public static void Main() { Random ran = new Random(); int player1 = 0; int player2 = 0; int player1RoundScore = 0; int player2RoundScore = 0; bool player1RoundScore = false; bool player2RoundScore = false; int roundNumber = 1; // Random dice rolling // { int diceOne = ran.Next(17); int diceTwo = ran.Next(17); int diceThree = ran.Next(17); } { if (diceOne == diceTwo || diceTwo == diceThree || diceOne == diceThree) } } }

The following will do what you need but you'll need to fix the random number seeding if you want to run it more than once... class Program { public static void Main(string[] args) { GolfGame game = new GolfGame(18); Player player1 = new Player(Fred); Player player2 = new Player(George); game.AddPlayer(player1); game.AddPlayer(player2); game.Play(); Console.Write(
Press any key to continue...); Console.ReadKey(); } } public class GolfGame { ArrayList players = new ArrayList(); int numberOfHoles = 0; public GolfGame(int holes) { numberOfHoles = holes; } public void AddPlayer(Player p) { if (players.Count >= 2) { Console.Write(Error: cannot add player {0} there are already 2 players signed up p.Name); } else { players.Add(p); } } public void Play() { for (int hole = 1; hole { bool stillPlayingTheHole = true; while (stillPlayingTheHole) { stillPlayingTheHole = false; foreach (Player player in players) { if (player.ShotsTaken == 0) { stillPlayingTheHole = true; player.TeeOff(); if (player.Scored) { Console.Write(Player {0} scored a hole-in-one !
 player.Name); } } else { if (!player.Scored) { stillPlayingTheHole = true; player.TakeShot(); if (player.Scored) { Console.Write(Player {0} scored in {1} shots
 player.Name player.ShotsTaken); } } } } } foreach (Player player in players) { player.ShotsTaken = 0; } } foreach (Player player in players) { Console.Write(After {0} rounds {1} has a total score of {2}
 numberOfHoles player.Name player.AccumulatedScore); } } } public class Player { private string name; private int accumulatedScore = 0; private int shotsTaken = 0; private bool scored = false; Random ran; public Player(string playerName) { name = playerName; ran = new Random(name.Length); } public string Name { get { return name; } set { name = value; } } public bool Scored { get { return scored; } set { scored = value; } } public int ShotsTaken { get { return shotsTaken; } set { shotsTaken = value; } } public int AccumulatedScore { get { return accumulatedScore; } set { accumulatedScore = value; } } public void TeeOff() { shotsTaken = 0; scored = false; Roll(); } public void TakeShot() { Roll(); } private void Roll() { int diceOne = ran.Next(1 7); int diceTwo = ran.Next(1 7); int diceThree = ran.Next(1 7); ++shotsTaken; Console.Write({0} got [{1}] [{2}] [{3}]
 name diceOne diceTwo diceThree); if (diceOne == diceTwo || diceTwo == diceThree || diceOne == diceThree) { scored = true; accumulatedScore += shotsTaken; } } }
