Dice
- For other uses, see either Die or Dice (disambiguation).
Dice (the plural of die, from Old French dé, from Latin datum "something given or played" [1]) are small polyhedral objects, usually cubical, used for generating random numbers or other symbols. This makes dice suitable as gambling devices, especially for craps or sic bo, or for use in non-gambling tabletop games.
