Summary

Description
English: A simulation of Buffon's needle experiment using Python3 and the graphing utility Matplotlib. The animation shows how the value of pi trends as the number of needle tosses approaches infinity, illustrating the organic relationship between natural phenomena and the probability distribution given the space, needle length, grid spacing, and number of tosses.
