Next, we simulate rolling the dice 1,000 times and record the results in an array. In this case, we are just recording the total of the two faces of the pair of dice.

Finally, we tell pylab to generate a histogram of the data. We are defining the size of the bins or collection points of the data for the display since we know exactly what the data is going to look like.
