The following code uses this approach: +```{r} +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) +ggplot(df, aes(x=X,y=Y,color=Accept)) + geom_point(alpha=.2) + coord_fixed() + theme_bw() ``` -It is also straightforward to include figures.
