requiredSamples: just run this many samples.
requiredTolerance: run as many samples as you need until the MC error
estimate reaches the given value.
(of course, the above two are mutually exclusive.)
maxSamples: (when using requiredTolerance) run at most this many
samples. If at this point you still haven't reached the required
tolerance, raise an error.
