Workbook 5.11
From the Java Bootcamp Resources, launch Workbook 5.11.
Task 1
Print the rules to the user:
>> Let's play Rolling Java. Type anything to start.
scan.nextLine
>> Great, here are the rules:\n
>> - If you roll a 6, the game stops.
>> - If you roll a 4, nothing happens.
>> - Otherwise, you get 1 point.\n
>> You must collect at least 3 points to win. Enter anything to roll:
scan.nextLine
Task 2
Make a while loop that runs forever.
Place your second scan.nextLine() from Task 1 as the first line in your loop. Print hey in your loop's second line.
After testing your code, remove the hey print.
Task 3
Define the rollDice function.
/** * Function name: rollDice * @return randomNumber (int) * * Inside the function: * - return a random number between one and six. */
Task 4
During each run, call rollDice() and store the value in diceRoll. Print each dice roll: You rolled a <diceRoll>..
Task 5
Whenever the user rolls a 6:
- print:
End of game. - stop the game.
Whenever the user rolls a 4:

Visualizing the Runtime
After you solve this workbook, I still recommend watching the video solution on Udemy.
It will show you how to visualize the runtime using Visual Studio Code.
