Monte Carlo refers to algorithms that rely on repeated random sampling to obtain numerical results. This lecture teaches Monte Carlo using 5 examples:
0:15 Uniform sampling for estimating π
7:37 Buffon's needle problem
13:20 Area of a region
19:39 Monte Carlo integration
29:29 Estimating expectations
