When an equation is too incredibly complex to solve normally, scientists use 'Monte Carlo Simulations'. They literally throw millions of randomly generated numbers at the problem and track the chaotic outcomes to estimate a final mathematical truth. It is the intellectual equivalent of closing your eyes, firing a machine gun at a dartboard, and analyzing the bullet holes to find the bullseye.
