A method for estimating the largest (or smallest) eigenvalue of a real positive definite matrix is given. It uses a probabilistic algorithm to compute an estimate which will line within a prescribed distance from the true value. It is a non-iterative method and its execution time can be estimated ''a priori''. This method appears to be especially suitable for the estimation of the condition number of a given matrix.
