How do I find the amount of times a Die landed on a certain face thats been roll

Question

How do I find the amount of times a Die landed on a certain face thats been rolled X number times using a class in c++ programming?

I have a program that rolls a dice a few thousand times, randomly generating a number through a class each time and then storing each roll in a vector. How do I create a method inside the same class that will return the number that a particular side has appeared? Method will be called count(int) as in int count(int face). This is my code so far but I dont know how to do the next step.

#include <iostream>

#include <vector>

#include <cstdlib>

#include <ctime>

using namespace std;

class aDie {

public:

   int roll();

private:

int numRolled;

} ;

int aDie::roll() {

numRolled = (rand() % 6) + 1;

return numRolled;

}

int main() {

srand(time(NULL));

vector<int> totalRolls(5000);

aDie getRan;

for (int i = 0; i < 5000; ++i) {

getRan.roll();

totalRolls.at(i) = getRan.roll();

cout << totalRolls.at(i) << endl;

}  

}

return 0;

}

Explanation / Answer

class aDie {

public:

   int roll();

private:

int numRolled;

int countOfRoll[6];

} ;

int aDie::roll() {

numRolled = (rand() % 6) + 1;

countOfRoll[nulRolled]++; //this variable will keep count of how many times that face landed.

return numRolled;

}
