Virtual dice and coin flips via Google

Many stats instructors use dice and/or coin flips to teach their students about distributions, probably, CLT. Here is an alternative to physical coins and dice, in case you are teaching from a distance. Certainly, there are countless other websites that will roll a dice or flip a coin for you, but these simple websites created by Google are intuitive and pretty.

Using Google's dice rolling simulator, you can roll a standard six-sided die. Or a DnD 20 sided die. Or multiple dice. I included the link, but all you need to do Google "Roll dice" to get to the website.



Google also lets you flip a coin. This simulator doesn't have any fancy options, and you can get to it simply by Googling, "Flip a coin".
