Whenever I roll two six sided dice and add them together, I get a number
between two and twelve (as opposed to one and twelve).

   If my memory serves, you're that person who was trying to write a game
in which a single 12 sided die was being rolled, correct? Well, assuming you
got that game working, I would first try to generalize it so that you could
roll dice with any number of sides. Once that works, I'd generalize again so
that any number of dice could be rolled.

The command line parameters he speaks of is handled in the main easily.
That's what the (String [] args)  arguments are all about.
args[0] would have a value of "6" in the example you gave, and args[1] would
be "6".
Keep in mind these are strings.
That should be enough without writing the code for you, which your professor
wouldn't want us to do.

Since you didn't include any information on the program that needs to be
modified, nobody reading your post can tell how it differs from the
requirements and thus what needs to be changed.

It sounds like a homework assignment though, so you may want to ask your
 teacher, instructor, professor, TA, etc.
