1d4 - roll 1 four-sided die.
2d4 - roll 2 four-sided dice.
2d4b1 - roll 2 four-sided dice, take best result.
That way, for example, the "Roll 4 d6, drop lowest" method of generating an attribute can be rendered as 4d6b3.
As far as I know, there's no standard notation to indicate that you should double a result.
