The sum of outcomes for rolling an N-sided dice K times.
This function returns a list. The last two elements are the range of probability distribution. The range is: 'k_time' to 'k_time*n_side'
Other elements contain probabilities for getting a summation from 'k_time' to 'k_time*n_side'.

Hi, If you have any confusion about the algorithm, you can email me at [email protected] and arrange a meeting.
There are two typos in comments. Everything else seems correct.
Lines 40 and 41 will be as follows:
The probability of getting 2 is 1/36. The probability of getting 3 is 2/36.
