You Can Approximate Pi by Dropping Needles on the Floor

바닥에 바늘을 떨어뜨려 원주율(π)을 근사하는 방법

Why it matters

The article celebrates Pi Day by exploring Buffon's Needle problem, a probability method proven in 1777 that approximates pi by dropping needles on a lined floor. When needle length equals line spacing, the probability of crossing a line is 2/π, allowing empirical estimation of pi without calculus.
