estimate area under a curve defined by non-negative real-valued continuous function within a continuous interval using monte-carlo (#1785)

* estimate area under a curve defined by non-negative real-valued continuous function within a continuous interval using monte-carlo

* run black; update comments

* Use f”strings” and drop unnecessary returns

An implementation of the Monte Carlo method to find area under

1. Let x be a uniformly distributed random variable between min_value to max_value
2. Expected value of x = (integration of x from min_value to max_value) / (max_value - min_value)
3. Finding expected value of x:
a single variable non-negative real-valued continuous function,
say f(x), where x lies within a continuous bounded interval,
say [min_value, max_value], where min_value and max_value are
finite numbers
1. Let x be a uniformly distributed random variable between min_value to
max_value
2. Expected value of f(x) =
(integrate f(x) from min_value to max_value)/(max_value - min_value)
3. Finding expected value of f(x):
a. Repeatedly draw x from uniform distribution
b. Expected value = average of those values
4. Actual value = (max_value^2 - min_value^2) / 2
b. Evaluate f(x) at each of the drawn x values
c. Expected value = average of the function evaluations
