\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the odds are however many total to 6 divided by 36
\n" ); document.write( "1+1 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "1+2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "1+3 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "1+4 = 5
\n" ); document.write( "1+5 = 6 <-= hey we got one
\n" ); document.write( "1+6 = 7
