Syntax:

dicetest

The dicetest command displays the results of several tests performed on all the rolls of all players since FIBS was last restarted. This allows you to examine the dice generation results of FIBS, in case you want to start yet another argument about whether FIBS cheats (it doesn't).

First it tells you how many rolls went into the results you'll see afterwards. The next 6 lines show you how often each pair of numbers appeared in those rolls.

The next lines show a geometrical test: refer to Numerical Recipes. Example Book (C) for a similar test.

The next lines show how often a certain number appeared several times in a row. Each roll with two dice is treated as two rolls with a single die and the length of sequences of exactly n rolls are counted for each number. E.g. the number below 'n: 1' tells you how often there was exactly a single 1 (no 1 rolled before or after that). In each line 'S:' means 'sum:'.

The last line tells you the theoretical values of the line above, so you can compare the theory to the number of n-runs rolled in real life FIBS.
