Abstract
Monte Carlo (MC) computer programs are useful for simulating processes that occur randomly in nature, handling problems in which fluctuations are important, or investigating problems that are mathematically intractable. A simple MC method is employed here that can be carried out by undergraduate physical chemistry students. The MC method illustrates several important concepts of statistical mechanics.
