Done. Interesting challenge, I also explained this concept to my daughter, and she liked it very much, so I wrote a blog:https://github.com/steve-yuan-8276/DA_Notes/issues/2

Love doing the math with Alteryx.

I simplified estimation of finding pi in other way by using regular polygon with edge number N. When N >10000, accuracy will be saturated.
