How
Perform a Monte Carlo simulation that computes the pressure of the
system as a function of volume and temperature
Simulation code pre-exists [1] and can be downloaded from MyCourses
Obvious
Number of total simulation
cycles
The pressure (and energy) given in the command window at the end of the
simulation is the average of the last (Ncycle-Ninit) values
