OpenOffice.org Stuff

Yahtzee

Now you can play the famous dice game without leaving the comforts of your spreadsheet! I wrote it to hopefully be a good example on how to write simple little scripts with the OpenOffice.org macro language. I intended to document everything I did to create it, but haven't yet found time to do that. If you really want to see that, please let me know. If there's sufficient interest, I'll find time.

Get the program here

To play: Just load it into OpenOffice.org Calc and click the "Initialize" button on the far-right. Then you can click the Roll button to throw the dice. You may immediately score the roll, or throw some or all dice up to two more times. Other than that, I'll assume you know how to play the game!

Have fun!
