To misquote Monty Python what have the Ancient Egyptians ever done for us? Well‚ they’ve given us cake for a start! Roman and Greek history records cake-making but according to food historians it’s the early Egyptians who were the first skilled bakers.

Calculation of Pi Using the Monte Carlo Method by Eve Andersson Home : Pi : One Calculation ________________________________________ The "Monte Carlo Method" is a method of solving problems using statistics. Given the probability‚ P‚ that an event will occur in certain conditions‚ a computer can be used to generate those conditions repeatedly. The number of times the event occurs divided by the number of times the conditions are generated should be approximately equal to P.

Exotic animals are constantly being brought over to the United States illegally‚ with the occasional legal transactions. They can be bought from roadside menageries‚ from the people that capture them in the wild‚ from auctions‚ over the internet‚ or from backyard breeders. It’s legal in a few states to own them‚ but
