• Method begins to fail for sufficiently long chains

  • maybe as few as 10 atoms

• Extensions of method

  • Gibbs ensemble
  • Branched polymers
  • Partial chain regrowth
  • Chemical-potential calculation

• General idea can be applied in other ways

  • Multi-step trial broken into smaller decisions, with acceptance including consideration of the choices not taken
