Line 102:
==Python Van der Corput==
Is this solution converging faster or slower than the simpler grid or totally random sampling strategies?
: Lets see,
:* The Python grid uses 500*500 = 250000 points to get a value of 21.561559772.
:* After 200000 points, the Van der Corput has a value of 21.565708203389384
:* The given analytical solution is 21.565036603856395
:It looks as if the VdC does more with its 200K points than the grid with 250K, but I like the fact that the VdC generates a finer and finer grid as you take more points unlike the fixed box grid. (Plus I had stowed away the fact that VdC was used for Monte Carlo sims and wanted to try it out). --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 15:07, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
