I recommend the following, in the order given.
http://www.r-project.org/posting-guide.html
Then from the R command line:
?expand.grid
?transform
?apply
?aggregate
install.packages("prob")
library(prob)
vignette("prob") # see section 8
?rolldie
?addrv
?marginal
Then turn off the computer, pick up a pencil, and solve the problems
by hand. Wait a minute, maybe that should be step 1?
Have fun,
Jay
