I'd like to try and test out some strategies.
Thanks!
Quote: Ginzo13Does anyone have a link to, or know of a, craps simulator that I can set up a betting strategy, let it run, and have it report back with an explanation & data of each roll: bet/payout/loss/etc?

I recommend starting from scratch in your language of choice. Once you get started, asking detailed questions might help if you need it.
Quote: charliepatrickI agree, since once you've got the basic building blocks then it can be used for other games. The difficult bit (since you don't need card shuffling) is creating a truly random number generator and then checking that it is. If you like mathematics, you should find this an enjoyable and rewarding exercise.
Thank you for that. However I have no coding or software building experience at all and have zero time (with a full time job) to begin to try to learn a language to do this. I understand the game and the odds and payouts, but there must be an existing program that is programmed to help analyze each roll for me. People online talk about running simulations using Regressions, Ho-Downs, Iron-Crosses, Martingale, etc so i'm hoping someone here can point me in that direction.
What exactly are you trying to do? Are you trying to analyze a specific strategy? Or are you trying to analyze several different strategies?
If you poke around with Excel a little bit, you can pretty quickly and easily run a simulation on it. Some things are more difficult than others to analyze.
PS: All betting systems are losing systems. If your goal is to determine if a system is a winning system or not, you shouldn't bother wasting your time....unless you do not value your time, or for whatever strange reason you've figured out a flaw in the game of craps that you think could be exploited.
sure do (DUE)Quote: Ginzo13Does anyone have a link to, or know of a, craps simulator that I can set up a betting strategy,

that sounds funnyQuote: Ginzo13let it run, and have it report back

------New shooter coming out----------
I walked with a $10 profit (50% net gain)
I be lucky in my new shoes

have fun!
many systems of play can also be calculated too (to check the simulation)
