/**
 * Class PiSeq is a sequential program that calculates an approximate value for
 * π using a Monte Carlo technique. The program generates a number of random
 * points in the unit square (0,0) to (1,1) and counts how many of them lie
 * within a circle of radius 1 centered at the origin. The fraction of the
 * points within the circle is approximately π/4.
 * 

* Usage: java edu.rit.clu.monte.PiSeq seed N *
seed = Random seed *
N = Number of random points *

* The computation is performed sequentially in a single processor. The program * uses class edu.rit.util.Random for its pseudorandom number generator. The * program measures the computation's running time. This establishes a benchmark * for measuring the computation's running time on a parallel processor. * * @author Alan Kaminsky * @version 31-Jan-2007 */ public class PiSeq { // Prevent construction. private PiSeq() { } // Program shared variables. // Command line arguments. static long seed; static long N; // Pseudorandom number generator. static Random prng; // Number of points within the unit circle. static long count; // Main program. /** * Main program. */ public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception { // Start timing. long time = -System.currentTimeMillis(); // Initialize middleware.
