When you click on the button Knit, the document will be compiled in order to re-execute the R code and to include the results into the final document. As we have shown in the video, R code is inserted as follows:

-

It is also straightforward to include figures. For example:

Note the parameter echo = FALSE that indicates that the code will not appear in the final version of the document. We recommend not to use this parameter in the context of this MOOC, because we want your data analyses to be perfectly transparent and reproducible.

-

Since the results are not stored in Rmd files, you should generate an HTML or PDF version of your exercises and commit them. Otherwise reading and checking your analysis will be difficult for anyone else but you.

Now it’s your turn! You can delete all this information and replace it by your computational document.

Using a surface fraction arugment

+

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 “Monte Carlo method” on Wikipedia). The following code uses this approach:

+
set.seed(42)
+N = 1000
+df = data.frame(X = runif(N), Y = runif(N))
+df$Accept = (df$X**2 + df$Y**2 <=1)
+library(ggplot2)
+
## Registered S3 methods overwritten by 'ggplot2':
+##   method         from 
+##   [.quosures     rlang
+##   c.quosures     rlang
+##   print.quosures rlang
+
ggplot(df, aes(x=X,y=Y,color=Accept)) + geom_point(alpha=.2) + coord_fixed() + theme_bw()
+

+

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