Here's a simple code that uses a Monte-Carlo simulation to estimate the value of pi in MATLAB:
main.m396 chars15 lines
In this code, we generate n random points in the square with corners (0, 0), (1, 0), (0, 1), and (1, 1), and count the number of points that fall within the unit circle centered at the origin. This count is then used to estimate the value of pi using the formula pi = 4*(number of points inside circle)/(total number of points).
