| Topic | Since CE has been discussing probability problems lately: the Boy Girl paradox |
| No Tolerance 05/26/20 2:57:21 AM #17 | ThisGuyAreSick posted... 1. proceed with the paper as normal By using your rules, you've essentially "reset" the games and probabilities by having a new person choose between two choices. Yes, this will be a 50/50, but this does not apply to the Monty Hall problem. The Monty Hall problem only works with three or more choices and one prize. |

| No Tolerance 05/26/20 2:17:55 AM #15 | ThisGuyAreSick posted... againThe Monty Hall problem can easily be proven in real life, just play the game using three pieces of paper with one marked as the prize. Or if you're too lazy, simulate the game. http://www.rossmanchance.com/applets/MontyHall/Monty04.html |
| Topic | My brother cannot comprehend the Monty Hall problem. |
| No Tolerance 05/25/20 12:18:05 AM #108 | 50/50 either I'll wake up tomorrow morning or die in my sleep tonight. Actually now that I think about it, all probability might as well be 50/50, either it's true or false. Think we just solved all the questions of the universe. |

| No Tolerance 05/25/20 12:03:11 AM #99 | It's an easy concept to understand if you realize the 1/3 and 2/3 probabilities are locked in right away as soon as the player picks their door, NOT when the player decides to open their door. The door the player picks initially has a 1/3 chance of containing a car, while the other 2 doors have a combined 2/3 chance of containing a car. By removing one of the two doors, the last door STILL has the same 2/3 chance to contain a car because you know that no matter what, the door you initially picked will always have a 1/3 chance of containing a car. Therefore, it's always better to switch. |
