How it works

See the formula, calculation method, and reasoning behind the result.

This tool simulates a standard die roll by generating one random whole number from 1 up to the selected number of sides.

For example:

  • a d6 can return any whole number from 1 to 6
  • a d20 can return any whole number from 1 to 20

The tool keeps the first version simple by supporting only standard dice sizes. That makes it useful for common gaming and classroom scenarios without adding extra setup complexity.
