How to set ImageResource dynamically?

Question

double randomDiceNumber = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 6);
String imageSource = "ic_dice" + Double.toString(randomDiceNumber);
dice.setImageResource(R.drawable.imageSource);

What I am trying to do is set an Imageview to a different dice side depending on which number is rolled.

@GeorgeZ. I saw that one, but since I am new to Java I didn't manage to figure it out with that post. — user11482237

double randomDiceNumber = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 6);    
String uri = "@drawable/ic_dice" + Double.toString(randomDiceNumber); 
dice.setImageResource(
           getResources().getDrawable(
                  getResources().getIdentifier(uri, null, getPackageName());
           )
      );
