Scott Gray's Dice Pool Calculator

This program is © 2000 by Scott David Gray.

This program is designed to calculate probabilities when using a dice pool.

Dice pools are used in role playing games such as Shadowrun, Star Trek, the Storyteller games, and other games. A dice pool is used by rolling a number of dice and, rather than adding them together, comparing the rolls to a target number and counting how many dice meet that target.

When entering the fields, be sure that the number of dice you enter is greater than zero, that the number of sides you enter is between 2 and 999 (inclusive), and that the target number you enter is between 2 and the number of sides (inclusive).

and here is the form itself:


Number of dice to be thrown:
Number of sides each die has:
Target number:

This program was designed (and the math calculated) by Scott David Gray, from the Sudbury Valley School.
