each experiment has a accompanying jupyter notebook that explains the process and results. links to jupyter notebooks below.

• pi approximation using area ratios
• modeling average stick length after n breaks
• random walks and distance from home
• solving nonelementary definite integrals using monte carlo
• assorted results from examing the card game blackjack
