      System.Random rnd = new System.Random();
      for (i = 0; i < 100; i++ )
      {
         roll = (int) rnd.Next(1, range + 1);
         System.Console.WriteLine("Roll {0} is {1}", i+1, roll);
         switch (roll)
         {
            case 1:

      System.Console.WriteLine("\n\nThe results are:");
      System.Console.WriteLine("ones:     {0}", nbr_1);
      System.Console.WriteLine("twos:     {0}", nbr_2);
      System.Console.WriteLine("threes:   {0}", nbr_3);
      System.Console.WriteLine("fours:    {0}", nbr_4);
