# monte carlo
Monte Carlo methods answer hard problems by repeating a random experiment thousands of times and reading the statistics off the results — no closed-form formula required. This collection gathers every simulation on MySimulator built around that idea, from the classic Monte Carlo π estimator and Buffon's Needle to physics workhorses like the Ising Model and biology's Protein Folding Visualiser. You'll also find finance applications such as Stock Price — GBM and Option Pricing, rendering techniques like Path Tracing, and probability puzzles including the Birthday Paradox and Gambler's Ruin. Filter by this tag whenever you want to see randomness turned into a working answer.

📊 Facts about this collection
- 17 items total — 15 interactive simulations plus 2 articles, covering physics, finance and probability alike.
- Two independent π-estimation demos live here: Monte Carlo π and Buffon's Needle, showing two different random experiments converging on the same constant.
- The Ising Model appears in three separate sims (Ising Model, Phase Transitions and Ferromagnetism, Phase Transition), reflecting how central Monte Carlo sampling is to statistical-mechanics phase transitions.
- Finance is represented by Stock Price — GBM and Option Pricing, both using random-path sampling to price uncertain outcomes.
