JP: Project for your JP journal: Circle/Square Simulation for Pi
You are going to estimate pi by doing a simulation of firing randomly onto a square with an inscribed circle.
Pi = 4 times the probability of landing in the circle = 4*hits/number of points
An example of the mathematics of one such simulation is below.
In your JP file, complete the following information for 3 simulation experiments:
| Simulation # | Hits | Number of Points |
