Description
This PR adds a dice-rolling simulator feature to the project. It allows a user to specify how many dice they want to roll, then displays each rolled die as ASCII/box-drawing art (instead of plain numbers), first in a vertical layout (one die's art fully printed before the next) and then in a horizontal layout (dice printed side-by-side, row by row, mimicking a real dice throw on a table). Finally, it calculates and prints the total sum of all dice rolled.
The visual representation is built using a dice_art dictionary that maps each die face (1–6) to a 5-line tuple of strings drawn with box-drawing characters (┌, ─, │, └) and dot symbols (●) to represent pips, closely resembling a physical die face.
Problem it solves: Plain text output like [3, 5, 1] for dice rolls is unintuitive and unengaging. This feature makes dice rolls visually intuitive and more fun to read, which is especially useful for CLI-based board game tools, tabletop RPG utilities, or teaching demos involving loops/dictionaries.
