To simulate chance occurrences, a computer can’t literally toss a coin or roll a die. Instead, it relies on special numerical recipes for generating strings of shuffled digits that pass for random ...

The Monte Carlo simulation estimates the probability of different outcomes in a process that cannot easily be predicted because of the potential for random variables.

Formal tools used for functional verification claims an upper hand on traditional simulation based tools; given their exhaustive nature of property checking and a fast learning curve. Whereas the ...
