//! # Monte Carlo estimation of π
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Imagine that we have a square with sides of length 2 and a unit circle
|
||
|
//! (radius = 1), both centered at the origin. The areas are:
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! ```text
|
||
|
//! area of circle = πr² = π * r * r = π
|
||
|
//! area of square = 2² = 4
|
||
|
//! ```
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! The circle is entirely within the square, so if we sample many points
|
||
|
//! randomly from the square, roughly π / 4 of them should be inside the circle.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! We can use the above fact to estimate the value of π: pick many points in
|
||
|
//! the square at random, calculate the fraction that fall within the circle,
|
||
|
//! and multiply this fraction by 4.
