Case 018

Case corpus: a self-authored dice roll tally

dice_roll_tally.eml is one of a six-case self-authored batch of deterministic simulations and pattern generators (see [examples/fizzbuzz/](../fizzbuzz/), [examples/multiplication-table-generator/](../multiplication-table-generator/), [examples/triangle-pattern-printer/](../triangle-pattern-printer/), [examples/simple-calculator/](../simple-calculator/), and [examples/rock-paper-scissors-simulator/](../rock-paper-scissors-simulator/) for the other five) — part of growing the EML case corpus toward AI-native training scale, not a port of an existing project. EML's interpreter models no random-number generation, so the dice rolls here are a fixed, hardcoded 20-value list, not real randomness.

EML

eml
# Self-authored for the EML case corpus (no external origin). Tallies a
# fixed, hardcoded sequence of dice-roll values (EML's interpreter models
# no RNG, so no real randomness is used) into a dict keyed by face 1-6 via
# subscript read/write, then finds the most-frequent face with a manual
# comparison loop (deliberately avoiding a sorted()/max()-of-tuples builtin
# the interpreter doesn't model).
