Estimating Projectile Hit Probability Inside an Ellipse with Monte Carlo and Numerical Integration

This article demonstrates how to compute the probability that a projectile, whose impact points follow a bivariate normal distribution with 100 m standard deviations, lands inside a given elliptical target by comparing analytical numerical integration with a Monte Carlo simulation implemented in Python.
