Dice Play
This site explains Dice Notation, the way dice are spoken of in RPGs for example: 3d6, 1d20, 27d43.
3d6 is notation for three: six sided dice, 1d20 is one: 20 sided die and 27d43 (not actually possible with traditional dice) is 27: 43 sided dice.
I chose this because Dice notation is actually part of the probability in dice and determines the probability to reaching a certain outcome for example 1d6 meaning one: six sided die, has a flat probability as all numbers have the same probability of being rolled, however, 3d6 meaning three: six sided dice have a bell curve of reaching certain results thus making the extremes less probable than a number closer to the middle result (10.5).

Probability with Dice
This site gives lessons and info on the probability of dice. This goes from the chance of certain numbers being rolled and what various numbers can show up at a given time.
The reason i chose this site is because it details my final focus in this project: Dice probability. Dice probbility is one of the most random things in the universe, most people can't control the outcome of dice.
