I am new to mojo, started yesterday so i dont know much

You hav ea type mismatch when assigning pi = monte_carlo_simulation(10). When you initially set pi to 0, mojo will infer the type as FloatLiteral and expect the variable to always hold that type. The type returned from monte_carlo_simulation is an object. Anything returned from a python function is an object I believe. The fix is just to use let pi = monte_carlo_simulation(10) and remove the var pi line. That way it is inferring the correct type for your return value.

Ok but the segmentation fault?

Oh wait a new one I used to build it previously Now i just ran it instead

I think the fix I provided is all that is needed for the code you provided. It runs on my machine with output of 3.20 after asking me to input a number of iterations. So if problems persist for you, I would try reinstalling Mojo.

Oh I am using windows, wsl Maybe thats why?

Maybe. I am on a Macbook. But I think Windows via WSL should work. Are you using WSL 1 or WSL 2? Their is a comment in the docs to prefer 2.
