Question

Write a MATLAB program to simulate the FIFTY dice game that can automatically play the FIFTY dice game for any amount of players, keep scores for all the players, clearly show the game progress for every round, every player, and every roll in the command window, automatically ends the game when the first player accumulates 50 points or more game score, and automatically select the game winner and the winning game score.

i have coded most of the game, i need help with " any amount of players" how can i make the game work for as many players as user wants.

x1 = randi ([ 1,6],1);

x2 = randi ([ 1,6],1);

vec = [x1,x2];

s = sort (vec);

score =0;

round =1;

fprintf ('\tHello and welcome to your dice game!\n')

fprintf ('\tLets play, roll your dice !\n')

fprintf ('\tYou can choose as many players as you want!')

fprintf ('\t------------------------------------\n\n\n')

fprintf ('If you roll double 6, you get 25 points.\n')

fprintf ('If you roll a double 3 you go back to 0 points.\n')

fprintf ('Any other double other than 3, or 6, will get you 5 points.\n' )

Please find the matlab Code for variable number of players which is asked as console input

Since length of the output of this code depends on how quickly a player reaches 50. I have pasted the codes outputs

Hello and welcome to your dice game!

Lets play, roll your dice !

You can choose as many players as you want! ------------------------------------

If you roll double 6, you get 25 points.

If you roll a double 3 you go back to 0 points.

Any other double other than 3, or 6, will get you 5 points.

The first to get to 50 points wins.
