I don't understand two things: 1. How to have 2 whiles ex. while point != 5 and while point !=6 2. Why my code won't work. I tried removing the second while statement and it still didn't work. Any ideas? CODE puts "Welcome to Craps" roll1 = 2 + rand(6) + rand(6) if roll1 == 7 puts "Your roll is " + roll1.to_s + ". You win!" if roll1 == 11 puts "Your roll is " + roll1.to_s + ". You win!" if roll1 == 2 puts "Your roll is " + roll1.to_s + ". You lose!" if roll1 == 3 puts "Your roll is " + roll1.to_s + ". You lose!" if roll1 == 12 puts "Your roll is " + roll1.to_s + ". You win!" else puts "Your roll was " + roll1.to_s + ". Roll again!" point = 2 + rand(6) + rand(6) if point == 7 puts "Your roll is " + point.to_s + ". You lose!" if point == roll1 puts "Point is " + point.to_s + ". You win!" while point != roll1, 7 do puts "Your roll is " + point.to_s + ". Roll again!" roll2 = 2 + rand(6) + rand(6) if roll2 == 7 puts "Your roll is " + point.to_s + ". You lose!" if roll2 == roll1 puts "Point is " + point.to_s + ". You win!" end

This is a couple of days old, and I felt like messing around a little, so here's my attempt:

ruby

def init
    puts "Welcome to Craps"
    srand Time.now.tv_sec
end

def getroll
    2 + rand(6) + rand(6)
end

init

roll1 = getroll
puts "Your roll was " + roll1.to_s
case roll1
    when 7, 11, 12
        puts "You win!"
        exit
    when 2, 3
        puts "You lose!"
        exit
    else
        puts "Roll again!"
end

point = getroll
puts "Point is " + point.to_s
case point
    when 7
        puts "You lose!"
        exit
    when roll1
        puts "You win!"
        exit
end

roll2 = 0
while point != roll2 
    roll2 = getroll
    puts "Your roll is " + roll2.to_s
    case roll2
        when 7
            puts "You lose!"
            exit
        when point
            puts "You win!"
            exit
        else
            puts "Roll again"
    end
end
