Larry June-13th-2007, 07:02 PM OK, so a co-worker was telling me about this probability problem. Here's the problem: You're a contestant on a game show. You're asked to pick three doors. Behind one of the doors is a Big Prize, behind the other two are nothing. You pick a door. And then, before the host shows you what's behind your door, he opens one of the other door, revealing that it was empty. What are the odds that your door has the prize? June-13th-2007, 07:05 PM I know you're about to make me look stupid, but at that point, I believe it's 50%. PeterMP June-13th-2007, 07:06 PM The way you have put if forward 50%. For a more thorough explanation of why the wording is imortant see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem#Problem Fergasun June-13th-2007, 07:10 PM For some reason I'm thinking that the odds you have the prize are 1/3...

Shoryuken Discussion Groups General Discussion PDA View Full Version : The Monty Hall Problem P. Gorath 03-20-2007, 03:15 PM I thought this was pretty cool - The Monty Hall problem is a puzzle involving probability, loosely based on the American game show Let's Make a Deal. The name comes from that of the show's host, Monty Hall. The problem is also called the Monty Hall paradox; it is a veridical paradox in the sense that the solution is counterintuitive. For example, when Marilyn vos Savant offered the problem and the correct solution in her Ask Marilyn column in Parade, approximately 10,000 readers, including several hundred mathematics professors, wrote to tell her she was wrong. Some of the controversy was because the Parade statement of the problem fails to fully specify the host's behavior and is thus technically ambiguous. However, even when given completely unambiguous problem statements, explanations, simulations, and formal mathematical proofs, many people still meet the correct answer with disbelief. A thoroughly honest game-show host has placed a car behind one of three doors. There is a goat behind each of the other doors. You have no prior knowledge that allows you to distinguish among the doors. "First you point toward a door," he says. "Then I'll open one of the other doors to reveal a goat. After I've shown you the goat, you make your final choice whether to stick with your initial choice of doors, or to switch to the remaining door. You win whatever is behind the door."

Sheik Yerbouti 07-19-2007, 08:50 PM how so? During the initial choice, you have a 66% chance of picking the goat. Once one of the goats is revealed, if you switch, you have a larger chance of picking the car. The reason being you were more likely to pick a goat in the first place, and if one of the goats is taken away, you are left with a goat and a car. Therefore, you have a better chance of getting the car if you switch at the end. pink freud 07-19-2007, 08:58 PM

Monty Hall problem From Conservapedia Jump to: navigation search The Monty Hall Problem is a basic example problem in statistic and probability theory based on the premise of the television show Let's Make a Deal , originally hosted by Monty Hall Contents Problem Statement Solution Illustration using scenario outcomes Solution using Bayes' theorem ... edit Problem Statement A contestant on a game show is presented with three doors. Behind one of the doors is a car, and behind the other two doors are goats. The contestant chooses door 1. The host must then open a door to reveal a goat; he opens door 3. The host then gives the contestant a chance to switch his choice to door 2. If the contestant is trying to win the car, is it to his advantage to switch his choice? edit Solution It may be tempting to say that the contestant neither gains nor loses anything if he switches. Since there are two closed doors, and one of them is the winning door, it may appear that the probability of winning is 1/2 whether the contestant switches or not. Such reasoning is incorrect; the contestant always has a higher probability of winning if he switches. edit Illustration using scenario outcomes There are three possible scenarios in the problem.

First, how about multiple display lines instead of just one? I've gotten used to the way my trusty TI-83 displays of the ongoing calculation I'm doing.

Monty Hall problem From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia. Jump to: navigation search The Monty Hall problem is a mathematical question which puzzled mathematicians for years until it was miraculously solved in by Tom Cruise . Its solution led to two now well-known discoveries. The first is that in games of chance , one can increase one's chances of success by opening a door with a goat behind it. The second, and perhaps even more important discovery, is that if you talk about the Monty Hall problem to your friends for hours and hours they will become extremely annoyed. edit The problem outlined The Monty Hall problem involves a scenario where a contestant is presented with three doors, one of which has a car behind, and the other two of which conceal goats . The object of the exercise is for the contestant to pick the door with the car behind it, thus winning the car. The contestant makes a preliminary choice of door, after which the host, running the game remotely via satellite from a nearby concert venue (Monty Hall), opens one of the doors the contestant did not choose, revealing a goat. The contestant can then discuss with the goat whether he or she should stick with the door they have already picked, or switch to the other. One of the goats will always speak the truth, the other will always lie. (Although 'speak' here is a purely metaphorical term, as the goats communicate by clomping their hooves on the floor.) If Monty Hall's satellite is not working correctly, and it picks a door at random instead of always picking a door with a goat, then this may result in a "do-over" situation. Mathematicians have proven that it is possible to argue about the implications of a "do-over" in the Monty Hall problem for a long time, ignoring the non-mathematicians present who would prefer to talk about something else.

The contestant is allowed to open one door, and will win whatever is behind the door he opens; however, after the contestant has selected a door but before he actually opens it, the host (who knows what is behind each door) opens one of the other doors to show that there is a goat behind it, and asks the contestant whether they want to change their mind and switch to the other closed door. Does the contestant improve their chance of winning the car by switching or does it make no difference? The question has generated heated debate.
