Simulation Modeling
*Note: Read the table starting at TOP LEFT, and going DOWN until the bottom of each column, then restarting at the
TOP of the SECOND column, etc.
1. (30 points) Simulate until five wins and five losses of the following game of craps: The player rolls two fair dice. If
the outcome sum is 7 or 11, the player wins $10. Otherwise, the player records the resulting sum (called point) and
keeps on rolling dice until the outcome sum matches the recorded point., in which case the player wins $100. If a 7 is
obtained prior to matching the point, the player loses $10. Use the above table for your simulation.
2. (30 points) Use Monte Carlo sampling to estimate the area of the lake show below. Use the first two columns of the
table above only. Since there isn’t a function that defines the edge of the lake, plotting analysis can be used to simulate.
