Natural Pi - The Front Nine W.I.P.

## Meta ## 
    - 4 more ways to calculate pi with nature?

Introduction

These challenges are simulations of algorithms that only require nature and your brain (and maybe some re-usable resources) to approximate Pi. If you really need Pi during the zombie apocalypse, these methods don't waste ammo! There are nine challenges total.

Each challenge will give an algorithm for approximating Pi with nature. Then it will walk through how the computer simulation should work. Next comes the Specification to clear up details and finally there are some test cases.


Natural Pi #0 - Rock

  • Coprime Probability

Natural Pi #1 - Sand

  • Buffon's Needle

Natural Pi #2 - River

  • Curvy-ness of a River
