Monte Carlo algorithm

Introduction

It is the exciting time to share my knowledge about the Monte Carlo algorithm and how to apply to the daily life. The summer is the great time to hang out with a friend and then walk around the blocks, chatting is kind of art and science. I like to use the algorithm to help a young graduate to understand how to find the best boyfriend, theoretically how to do it.

For example, you will meet 10 candidates in next 12 months, at the end of 12 months, recall who is the best one in the last 12 months. And then, whenever someone shows up and beats the best one in last 12 months, it is a good idea to look into more.

Monte Carlo Algorithm

It is better to read the algorithm through wiki article first. Plan to read 10 - 20 minutes. Write down things I learn through the reading.
