Digital Dice - Computational Solutions To Practical Probability Problems

by Paul J. Nahin

~~22,51€~~ 18,01€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 Some probability problems are so difficult that they stump the smartest mathematicians. But even the hardest of these problems can often be solved with a computer and a Monte Carlo simulation, in which a random-number generator simulates a physical process, such as a million rolls of a pair of dice. This is what Digital Dice is all about: how to ge
