View source for Two bullet roulette

{{task}}

The following is supposedly a question given to mathematics graduates seeking jobs on Wall Street:
<blockquote>
  A revolver handgun has a revolving cylinder with six chambers for bullets.
    
  It is loaded with the following procedure:

      1. Check the first chamber to the right of the trigger for a bullet.  If a bullet
         is seen, the cylinder is rotated one chamber clockwise and the next chamber
         checked until an empty chamber is found.

      2. A cartridge containing a bullet is placed in the empty chamber.

      3. The cylinder is then rotated one chamber clockwise.
    
  To randomize the cylinder's position, the cylinder is spun, which causes the cylinder to take
  a random position from 1 to 6 chamber rotations clockwise from its starting position.
    
  When the trigger is pulled the gun will fire if there is a bullet in position 0, which is just
  counterclockwise from the loading position.
    
  The gun is unloaded by removing all cartridges from the cylinder.
    
  According to the legend, a suicidal Russian imperial military officer plays a game of Russian
  roulette by putting two bullets in a six-chamber cylinder and pulls the trigger twice.
  If the gun fires with a trigger pull, this is considered a successful suicide.
    
  The cylinder is always spun before the first shot, but it may or may not be spun after putting
  in the first bullet and may or may not be spun after taking the first shot.
    
  Which of the following situations produces the highest probability of suicide?
    
    A. Spinning the cylinder after loading the first bullet, and spinning again after the first shot.

    B. Spinning the cylinder after loading the first bullet only.

    C. Spinning the cylinder after firing the first shot only.

    D. Not spinning the cylinder either after loading the first bullet or after the first shot.

    E. The probability is the same for all cases.

</blockquote>
;Task:
# Run a repeated simulation of each of the above scenario, calculating the percentage of suicide with a randomization of the four spinning, loading and firing order scenarios.
# Show the results as a percentage of deaths for each type of scenario.
# The hand calculated probabilities are 5/9, 7/12, 5/9, and 1/2. A correct program should produce results close enough to those to allow a correct response to the interview question.

Though if you go and look at the [[wp:Nagant_M1895| Wikipedia article for the 1895 Nagant revolver]] mentioned in the task reference section, you'll see it is actually a <u>'''7'''</u> shot revolver... so, run again with 7 chambers:

<pre>LSLSFSF: %49.29
 LSLSFF: %51.14
 LLSFSF: %48.74

Or, how about a [[wp:Ruger_GP100#Specifications|Ruger GP100 10 round revolver]]?

<code>raku roulette.raku 10</code>
{{out|Sample output (10 shooter)}}
<pre>LSLSFSF: %36.00
 LSLSFF: %37.00
 LLSFSF: %36.13

Doesn't change the answers, B (LSLSFF) is definitely the <strike>worst</strike> most likely choice in all cases.

This REXX version eliminates the spinning of the bullet chamber if the random number for a spin is &nbsp; '''6''' &nbsp; (which would  
<br>normally just spin the bullet chamber around to its initial position, &nbsp; thereby saving some busywork by the program).

Changing the cartridge chamber from an index array to a simple string made the program around &nbsp; '''200%''' &nbsp; faster.
