Summary
[edit]DescriptionPiapproxSurvey.gif |
English: Description
English: As points are randomly sampled from a survey inside the unit square, some fall within the unit circle. The fraction of points inside the circle over all points approaches pi as the number of points goes toward infinity. Selecting from a survey of points converges to pi more quickly than points selected at random. This animation represents the stratified sampling method of computing pi out to 30,000 iterations. |
