Fermi reference
In case anyone was tracking this, Dan Mantooth did point me to a pretty good
reference on this subject:
The Monte Carlo Method. N. Metropolis, S. Ulam. Journal of the American
Statistical Association, Vol. 44, No. 247. (Sep., 1949), pp. 335-341.
Fermi is not actually in the author list of this article; it mentions the
application of Monte Carlo methods to solve eigenvalues of the Schrodinger
equation, which is generally attributed to the three investigators.
