feature: roll the dice

[marqh]

feed me tips and target points on coding and i'll happily implement

interface suggestion:

sp0rkle: roll <n> d<d>

args:

• n optional (default 1)
• d required

behaviour:

return dice roll number set for n dice of size d integer list based on (pseudo)random number generator

e.g.

sp0rkle: roll d4
3
sp0rkle roll 2 d6
3 5
sp0rkle roll 3 d12
1 11 8

Heyoo, thanks for the suggestion :-)

This probably belongs in drivers/decisiondriver, which does random number stuff. If I was you i'd make the spaces around the d optional -- NdX is pretty common dnd terminology aiui.

You might find the Lexer in package util helpful for string parsing. You can see some simple example usage in drivers/decisiondriver/decisiondriver.go, in the quoteSplit function.
