The opration james though about is just modulo. You can use modulo to wrap around. Be carful if you have to go back before square #1 because modulo of negative numbers often give negative numbers (what is completely illogical in a mathematical point of view, but so it is)


Also be careful with dice: throwing a single random number between 2 and 12 isn't the same as throwing two random number between 1 and 6 and suming them up. Each number isn't equally probable when using two dice.
