The probability table method, originally developed for unresolved resonance calculations, is adapted to the calculation of bubble worths in a reactor core. Unlike previous approaches to this problem, this method is applicable to a broad class of problems, avoids a high variance Monte Carlo calculation, and preserves the main features of a random bubble distribution. This approach is illustrated by the solution to several problems of varying degrees of complexity.
