# ES6 Experiments Series: Buffon's needle

![Buffon's needle](https://image.ibb.co/eJ02Qz/buffons_needle_github.png)

[![Netlify Status](https://api.netlify.com/api/v1/badges/f2ff2cae-871a-44a5-bd49-1fc3070acb74/deploy-status)](https://app.netlify.com/sites/es6-experiments-series-buffons-needle/deploys)

Suppose we have a floor made of parallel strips of wood, each the same width, and we drop a needle onto the floor. What is the probability that the needle will lie across a line between two strips? [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon%27s_needle)

Project architecture mainly based on [Yet Another And Really Basic Webpack ES6 Starterkit](https://github.com/jonathanlinat/yet-another-and-really-basic-webpack-es6-starterkit).
