Question
1. Use the Monte Carlo method to estimate the following: o'exp(exp(x)) dx
this easy version of the Monte Carlo method, uses the law of large numbers:
Law of Large Numbers: if {Xi} are i.i.d. UNiform on [0, 1],
n
2 h(X;) →
h(x)dx = E(h(X))
i=1
The more complete Monte Carlo method allows to compute
b
h(x)f(x)dx = E(h(X))
a
for other random variebles, not only Uniform. Monte Carlo uses a Markov chain to generate sapling from the "steady state" distribution. See
slides attached.
In this problem, you are only asked to try the Law of Large Numbers.
2. E(N) where N is defined as follows. Let {U ¡} be i.i.d. Unif(0,1). Define N=min{n: U 1+...+U n
>1}
Calculate N 100 times and then compute the mean. (Also draw the histogram of results)
Repeat this again 10000 times. Comment on your findings. What was the average of your 10000 calculations?
