Question

Your task is to implement a function that, given an error tolerance err_tol (a floating-point value between 0 and 1) computes and prints the required input parameters for each algorithm. Recall that an accurate value of ?π is available through the math.pi constant, but keep in mind that the smaller the value for err_tol, the longer each method will take. You can implement any other helper methods you may need.

Requirements: Function signature (no return value). Be sure to import the Python modules you created for Parts 1, 2, and 3, e.g., import p1arch.

def pi_allpi(err_tol: float)

Notice that when you run your code repeatedly with the same err_tol input, you get the same values for Archimedes and Wallis (i.e., they are deterministic), but you keep getting different answers for Monte Carlo (non-deterministic). This is because Monte Carlo uses pseudo-random numbers for the darts' positions, and so gets different sets of points with every run.

To make sure you get the same result every time you run, you can initialize the pseudorandom number generator with a fixed seed first, before calling your p3mc.pi_mc function, e.g., random.random(10). This is a common technique used for testing non-deterministic computations.
