Indeed.
One of my off by one errors is a stupid hacky Monte Carlo intution for Picks theorem.
I count the number of points inside. Now about the boundary points I must assign some fractional weight because they are not fully inside. What's a stupid fraction I can use? Well, half seems about right. Voila,
