 ## Using a surface fraction argument
-A method that is easier to understand and does not make use of the sin function is based on the fact that if X∼U(0,1) and Y∼U(0,1), then P[X2+Y2≤1]=π/4 (see [“Monte Carlo method” on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method)). The following code uses this approach:
