在同一行上打印多行字符串

Question

what the title says. I have a dice program, and it prints a dice IE

 ------
|      |
|      |
|     1|
 ------

I want to be able to print multiple dice, so it looks like this:

 ------     ------
|      |   |      |
|      |   |      |
|     1|   |     3|
 ------     ------

I have tried fmt.Print, but that still prints them below each other. I was thinking about creating a function as well, that prints the top line of each object, but I couldn't figure out how to do this. Any ideas?

This takes care of the printing. The numbers are randomized between 1 and 6 (inclusive). The number of dice taken as a command line argument. So in my case ./roll 6 prints 6 dice with random numbers up to 6.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "math/rand"
    "os"
    "strconv"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    numDice := 1

    if len(os.Args) > 1 {
        i, err := strconv.Atoi(os.Args[1])
        if err != nil {
            fmt.Println(err)
        }
        numDice = i
    }

    seed := rand.NewSource(time.Now().UnixNano())
    randomNumber := rand.New(seed)

    die := []string{
        " ------   ",
        "|      |  ",
        "|      |  ",
        "|      |  ",
        " ------   ",
    }

    for i := 0; i < 5; i++ {
        for j, n := 0, numDice; j < n; j++ {
            if i == 3 {
                fmt.Printf("|    %d |  ", randomNumber.Intn(5)+1)
            } else {
                fmt.Print(die[i])
            }
        }
        fmt.Println()
    }
}
