Pi Approximator
2015.01.26.
Introduction
This project was inspired by this page, which I came across on /r/InternetIsBeautiful.
Description
The idea is very simple, the program calculates the value of pi using the Monte Carlo method. I found it interesting though, so this is my version, coded in C, powered by SDL. You can find the explanation of the method, other versions of the same program, and more discussion in the original reddit thread.
Downloads
Downloading the zip file that contains the executable results in a warning (at least in Chrome) as a security measure, but you can choose to "Keep" it.
