broad class of computational algorithms using random sampling to obtain numerical results
The Monte Carlo method is a computational approach that uses random sampling to solve complex problems and get numerical answers. It matters because it can tackle difficult mathematical and scientific challenges that would be impractical or impossible to solve using traditional calculation methods.

The approximation of a normal distribution with a Monte Carlo method
Monte Carlo methods, also called the Monte Carlo experiments or Monte Carlo simulations, are a broad class of computational algorithms based on repeated random sampling for obtaining numerical results. The underlying concept is to use randomness to solve deterministic problems.
