: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)
::In contrast, the C coded Monte Carlo method takes 100 million points to compute 21.56262288. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 15:15, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
::With 100 million points, the Python VdC area estimate is 21.565056432232886. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 15:24, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
