A method that is easier to understand and does not make use of the $\sin$ function is based on the fact that if $X\sim U(0,1)$ and $Y\sim
A method that is easier to understand and does not make use of the
$\sin$ function is based on the fact that if $X\sim U(0,1)$ and $Y\sim
U(0,1)$, then $P[X^2+Y^2\leq 1] = \pi/4$ (see [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method]["Monte Carlo method" on
Wikipedia]]). The following code uses this approach:

It is then straightforward to obtain a (not really good) approximatin
to $\pi$ by counting how many times, on average, $X^2 + Y^2$ is smaller
than 1:
