I just had a play and came up with this.
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; for (1..6){ print_dice($_); }; sub print_dice{ my $value = shift or die $!; my %diceHash = ( 1 => [0,2,0], 2 => [4,0,1], 3 => [4,2,1], 4 => [5,0,5], 5 => [5,2,5], 6 => [5,5,5] ); print "---------\n"; foreach my $face ($diceHash{$value}){ foreach my $line (@{$face}){ print '| '; my @map = split //, sprintf("%03b",$line); foreach my $dot (@map){ print $dot ? "#":" "," "; } print "|\n"; } } print "---------\n"; };
Output is:
--------- | | | # | | | --------- --------- | # | | | | # | --------- --------- | # | | # | | # | --------- --------- | # # | | | | # # | --------- --------- | # # | | # | | # # | --------- --------- | # # | | # # | | # # | ---------
