What makes it checkable
A stated seed for every random draw, so a simulated figure comes out the same every time it is drawn. A closed form beside every simulation, so there are two routes to each number. And the simulation's own error counted as carefully as the method's: a table of correct cells that flags one of them most of the time, two methods whose comparison is sharper or noisier for sharing their draws, a run that stops when it looks done and reports what it was looking for, and draws aimed at a tail that look settled while their variance is infinite.
