Copy your 3350/9/rand.cpp program to 3350/9/montecarlo.cpp

Log on to Odin and do this:

  $ cd 3350
  $ ./lab-start.sh
  $ cd 9
  $ cp rand.cpp montecarlo.cpp


Use the Monte Carlo method to calculate the probability that
three students in a row will be chosen by the Random Student Generator.

   Random Student Generator

Each student will program their own solution to this. The only restriction
is that you use the Monte Carlo Method, and not probability formulas.

You may use probability formulas to check your work.

The output can be something like shown below.

Sample output...


 $ ./montecarlo

 Number of tries: 10 million
 Instances found: nnnn
     Probability: 0.nnnnnnn
      1 in every: nnn.nnnnn tries




Probability = Instances found / Number of tries

1 in every = 1 / Probability



Note:
If you did not write this program in class from the big-screen, you should
try to write it from memory or from your notes. I do not recommend that you
copy the program from another student.
