Meeting 7. Monte Carlo simulation

Thursday November 9


This week we will explore how we can generate results via random simulation and employ data visualization to aid our understanding of a simulated process. The simulation algorithms we will look at belong to the family of "Monte Carlo" methods that use repeated random trials or statistical sampling.

To prep for meeting:

✅ Makeup folks: have your ~5 minute presentation ready to go at meeting start

✅ Everyone: See Ed post for background resources on Monte Carlo.
