蒙特卡洛
There is no consensus on how "Monte Carlo" should be defined. For example, Ripley defines most probabilistic modeling as "stochastic simulation", with "Monte Carlo" being reserved for Monte Carlo integration and Monte Carlo statistical tests. Sawilowsky distinguishes between a simulation, a Monte Carlo method, and a Monte Carlo simulation: a simulation is a fictitious representation of reality, a Monte Carlo method is a technique that can be used to solve a mathematical or statistical problem, and a Monte Carlo simulation uses repeated sampling to obtain the statistical properties of some phenomenon (or behavior).
