I have a question on my homework. My homework is to write a program in which 
the computer simulates the rolling of a die 50
times and then prints
(i). the most frequent side of the die
(ii). the average die value of all rolls.
I wrote the program so it says the most frequent number out of all the rolls for example 
(12,4,6,14,10,4) and will print out "14" instead of 4 like I need.
This is what I have so far:
import random

def rollDie(number):
     rolls = [0] * 6
     for i in range(0, number):
         roll=int(random.randint(1,6))
         rolls[roll - 1] += 1
     return rolls

if __name__ == "__main__":
     result = rollDie(50)
     print (result)
     print(max(result))

What is "rolls"? It's the number of times each side came up.

In the last line you asked it for the maximum number of times a side came up, and that's what you got.

You now just have to figure out _which_ side of the die that count corresponds to.
