/** Exercise 7.4 Betting A group of people are betting on the outcome of three throws of the dice.
 * A person bets $1 on predicting the outcome of the three throws.
 * Write a program that uses the random number method to simulate three throws of a die and 
 * displays the winnings according to the following rules:  
• all three throws are sixes: win $20;  • all three throws are the same (but not sixes): win $10;  
• any two of the three throws are the same: win $5.
