Review text

The features of the computational educational manual on Monte Carlo methods using as an example the lesson ``Investigation of the radiation transfer theory are considered. The electronic manual ``Foundations of Monte Carlo methods is developed in Institute of Computational Mathematics and Mathematical Geophysics (SB RAS) for students of Novosibirsk State University. The manual is divided into lessons containing illustrations, diagrams, model tasks, exercises, questions, and comments. In this electronic manual, it is possible to investigate the process of radiation transform using step-by-step realization of trajectories of radiation particles. The authors state that the lesson under consideration gives students the opportunity to study many important applications of Monte Carlo methods and also to consolidate knowledge about fundamental facts of the theory of stochastic modeling.
