Understand this paper

Suggested foundations for monte carlo and numerical simulation. Specialist prerequisites vary by paper.

Before you read

  1. Laws of Large Numbers and the Central Limit Theorem

    Understand convergence, sampling error and confidence intervals.

  2. Random Number Generation

    Generate reproducible samples and distinguish randomness from model assumptions.

Go further

  1. Monte Carlo Option Pricing

    Turn a discounted payoff into an estimator.

  2. Correlated Randoms and Low-Discrepancy Sequences

    Study dependence and alternatives to independent sampling.
