I'm trying to create a poker dice game. There are comp player and user player. Each player will roll dice 5 times. Basically, it likes create 2 random array, with 5 elements in each array. I'm trying to compare the outcome of these 2 arrays. For example; 2 pairs beat 1 pair/ 3 of a kind beat 2 pair/Fullhouse beat 3 of a kind and 2 pair...
I'm stuck at the comparing part. Don't know how to do it in the shortest way.
