Understanding the Results

Once you have entered all the necessary values, the calculator will display the following results:

• Minimum Possible Roll: This is the lowest possible roll, calculated as the sum of the number of dice and any modifier applied.
• Maximum Possible Roll: This value reflects the highest possible roll, determined by multiplying the number of dice by the type of dice and adding any modifier.
• Average Roll: The average roll is calculated by taking the average value of the roll of a single die, multiplying it by the number of dice, and applying the modifier.
• Expected Value: This is equivalent to the average roll, providing an expected result over many rolls.
