A project for NSWI170 Computer Systems course, written in Rust. It was complicated by a compiler issue (with a pull request currently blocked and pending review in the LLVM repository) where LLVM is not properly linking some operations for larger integers (e.g. bitwise left shift for u64 types), such that I couldn't use typical implementations for a pseudorandom number generator such as Pcg32, XorShift and so on. As such, I had to reinvent the wheel to some extent when it came to generating random dice rolls, and currently the generator used (while sufficient) likely has statistical limitations.

In a Bash (or similar) shell, clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/quantumferret/Arduino-DiceRoller.git -
cd into the project directory:
cd Arduino-DiceRoller -
Flash the board
./uno_runner.sh artifacts/nswi170-final-project.elf
Possible issues:
Make sure uno_runner.sh is executable! If in doubt, run chmod +x uno_runner.sh inside the project directory.
