 Write a random character generator that follows the rules above.
 
 For example, the six throws of four dice may look like:
 
-- 5, 3, 1, 6: You discard the 1 and sum 5 + 3 + 6 = 14, which you assign to strength.
-- 3, 2, 5, 3: You discard the 2 and sum 3 + 5 + 3 = 11, which you assign to dexterity.
-- 1, 1, 1, 1: You discard the 1 and sum 1 + 1 + 1 = 3, which you assign to constitution.
-- 2, 1, 6, 6: You discard the 1 and sum 2 + 6 + 6 = 14, which you assign to intelligence.
-- 3, 5, 3, 4: You discard the 3 and sum 5 + 3 + 4 = 12, which you assign to wisdom.
-- 6, 6, 6, 6: You discard the 6 and sum 6 + 6 + 6 = 18, which you assign to charisma.
+- 5, 3, 1, 6: You discard the 1 and sum 5 + 3 + 6 = 14, which you assign to **strength**.
+- 3, 2, 5, 3: You discard the 2 and sum 3 + 5 + 3 = 11, which you assign to **dexterity**.
+- 1, 1, 1, 1: You discard the 1 and sum 1 + 1 + 1 = 3, which you assign to **constitution**.
+- 2, 1, 6, 6: You discard the 1 and sum 2 + 6 + 6 = 14, which you assign to **intelligence**.
+- 3, 5, 3, 4: You discard the 3 and sum 5 + 3 + 4 = 12, which you assign to **wisdom**.
+- 6, 6, 6, 6: You discard the 6 and sum 6 + 6 + 6 = 18, which you assign to **charisma**.
 
 Because constitution is 3, the constitution modifier is -4 and the hitpoints are 6.
