Monte Carlo integration In mathematics, Monte Carlo integration is numerical quadrature using pseudo-random numbers. That is, Monte Carlo integration methods are algorithms for the approximate evaluation of definite integrals, usually multidimensional ones.

Monte Carlo method Monte Carlo methods are a widely used class of computational algorithms for simulating the behavior of various physical and mathematical systems, and for other computations. They are distinguished from other simulation methods (such as molecular dynamics) by being stochastic, that is nondeterministic in some manner - usually by using random numbers (or, more often, pseudo-random numbers) - as opposed to deterministic algorithms.
Monte Carlo methods in finance In the field of financial mathematics, many problems, for instance the problem of finding the arbitrage-free value of a particular derivative, boil down to the computation of a particular integral.
