Today we will see how we can compute π with a technique called Monte Carlo.
Wikipedia, the ultimate source of truth in the (known) universe has this to say about Monte Carlo:

Recently, I decided that I needed a small heads up display for import things I kept forgetting, like the time until an event started or number of unread emails in my inbox.
Opaque Datatypes Considered Awesome I am periodically reminded that many people don’t realize that C actually allows the creation of opaque data types. This is a possibly-surprising side effect of the option of never completing a type.
Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software. It provides an expressive syntax with its lightweight type system and comes with concurrency as a built-in feature at the language level.
In this post, we’ll look at how to build Go programs – such as compilers and static analysis tools – that interact with the LLVM compiler framework using the LLVM IR assembly language.
Today we will see how Apache Arrow could be useful for data science, or – really – a lot of analysis workloads.
Lingua franca In Data Science and in many scientific fields, the lingua franca is Python.
