Approximate pi by throwing darts

	library(tibble)
	library(ggplot2)

	# Imagine a circle inscribed in a unit square
	# We can converge (slowly) on the value of pi by throwing random darts
	# at this target; counting how many fall in versus out of the circle;
	# and using the resulting approximate area ratio to calculate pi.
