We show how to extract the condensates of composite operators, defined with respect to some scale μ, from explicitly μ-independent Monte Carlo results, using the renormalization group. For each composite operator, the object which is most naturally extracted from Monte Carlo is a renormalization group invariant quantity in the case of the quadratic gluon operator, this quantity coincides with the trace anomaly. © 1990.
