MONTE CARLO, PROBABILITY, ALGEBRA, AND PI
Monte Carlo techniques are those that use a random number generator to solve a problem. Often, but certainly not always, these are problems that might be difficult or even impossible to solve analytically. A random number generator can be a coin, a die or dice, a computer, a table of random numbers,...
