Pi

This is a comparison between two programs that calculate Pi.

Leibniz formula implementation:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

#include <chrono>

// Function duplicated from Workshop 2 - BLAS
void reportTime(const char* msg, std::chrono::steady_clock::duration span) {
    auto ms = std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::milliseconds>(span);
    std::cout << msg << " - took - " 
    << ms.count() << " millisecs" << std::endl;
}

// Arctangent of 1; execute for ~n iterations to refine the result
long double arctan1( unsigned long long int it ) { 
    long double r = 0.0;

    // v0.25; due to performing the operations in a different order, there are rounding issues...
    for ( long double d = 0.0; d < it; d++ ) { 
        long double de = d * 4.0 + 1.0;
        r += (1.0 / de) - (1.0 / (de + 2.0));
    }   

    return r;
}

int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { 
    unsigned long long int n = std::stoull(argv[1], 0); 

    std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point ts, te; 
    ts = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    long double pi = 4.0 * arctan1( n );
    te = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    reportTime("Arctangent(1) ", te - ts);

    // Maximum length of a long double is 64 digits; minus "3." gives 62 digits.
    std::cout.precision(62);
    std::cout << "Pi: " << std::fixed << pi << std::endl;
}

Monte-Carlo algorithm implementation:

#include <iostream>
#include <random>

#include <chrono>

// Function duplicated from Workshop 2 - BLAS
void reportTime(const char* msg, std::chrono::steady_clock::duration span) {
    auto ms = std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::milliseconds>(span);
    std::cout << msg << " - took - " <<
    ms.count() << " millisecs" << std::endl;
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
    std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point ts, te;

    ts = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    unsigned long long int n = std::stoull(argv[1], 0),
                           totalCircle = 0;

    int stride = 1000,
        circleSize = n / stride;

    unsigned int* circle = new unsigned int[circleSize];

    for (int i = 0; i < circleSize; i++)
        circle[i] = 0;

    std::random_device rd;
    std::mt19937 mt(rd());
    std::uniform_real_distribution<long double> dist(0.0, 1.0);
    te = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    reportTime("Init. ", te - ts);

    ts = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    for (unsigned long long int i = 0; i < circleSize; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < stride; j++) {
            long double x = dist(mt),
                        y = dist(mt);
            // if position is inside the circle...
            if (x * x + y * y < 1.0) {
                circle[i]++;
            }
        }
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < circleSize; i++)
        totalCircle += circle[i];

    long double pi = 4.0 * ((long double) totalCircle) / ((long double) n);
    te = std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
    reportTime("Drop points ", te - ts);

    std::cout.precision(62);
    std::cout << "Pi: " << std::fixed << pi << std::endl;

    delete [] circle;
}

At around 10K iterations, the first decimal is stable.
