Monte Carlo methods are increasingly recognized as powerful tools for both estimation and hypothesis testing. These methods leverage repeated random sampling to generate numerical results, proving particularly useful when traditional analytical solutions are complex or impossible to obtain. Monte Carlo simulations allow for the approximation of test statistic distributions, offering an alternative to classical methods, especially in complicated scenarios. They are grounded in the law of large numbers, ensuring that results converge to true values with sufficient trials.

Monte Carlo approximations can be created using various probability distributions, including the gamma and beta distributions. For example, simulations based on the gamma distribution, which models right-skewed data, can be used to analyze phenomena like failure times and queuing theory. Furthermore, Monte Carlo simulations are not limited to just Python, but can be implemented using Excel as well, making these methods more accessible for wider adoption in statistical analysis and applications.
