Let's play Yahtzee! Actually, let's figure out how much a specific roll scores.
Use this code to generate a roll. It will return an array of values between 1 and 6 with length 5.
roll = Array.new(5) { rand(6) + 1 }Write code that prints out the roll and then prints out the highest possible score for that roll. The rules for scoring in Yahtzee are:
