BUFFON_LAPLACE - Master process: FORTRAN90 version An MPI example program to estimate PI using the Buffon-Laplace needle experiment. On a grid of cells of width A and height B, a needle of length L is dropped at random. We count the number of times it crosses at least one grid line, and use this to estimate the value of PI. The number of processes is 4 Cell width A = 1.000000 Cell height B = 1.000000 Needle length L = 1.000000 1 123456889 0.808240 2 123456989 0.538638 3 123457089 0.269035 0 123456789 0.778426E-01 Trials Hits Estimated PDF Estimated Pi Error 400000 381969 0.954922500000 3.14161620446 0.235508665893E-04 BUFFON_LAPLACE - Master process: Normal end of execution.
