Monte Carlo

A semi-important point and semi-nitpicking for doing Monte Carlo: you need to estimate the error in a credible way given the number of samples, and should not output more significant digits than the confidence allows. The current C code sample size of 100M can't possibly allow 8 decimal point precision. --Ledrug 04:29, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

Right, in the C/Python outputs only the first few digits are correct. Feel free to add a bit of error estimation code.
