PI Calculation

Explanation

One of the profiles we decided to look at was the Monte Carlo PI Approximation method for solving the value of PI. We found that as the number of iterations increased exponentially by 10, so did our ability to get more digits for the value of PI. We believe that the scope of this program is too small to analyze as a group of 2 and are not using this as our program to solve.

Code

double xValue, yValue;
for(int i = 0; i < npoints; i++)
{
//Generate random numbers
xValue = (double) rand()/RAND_MAX;
yValue = (double) rand()/RAND_MAX;

if(sqrt((xValue*xValue)+(yValue*yValue)) <= 1)
{
circle_count++;
}
}

double pi, ds;

cout<<circle_count<<"/"<<npoints<<endl;
ds = (double)circle_count/npoints;
cout<<ds<<endl;
pi = ((4.0)*ds);

cout<<"PI = "<< pi <<endl;
