E. Gadd's Word of the Week & Others' Interpretations of Said Word™️

[Dudeman]

the monty hall problem has been explained to me multiple times and I still don't get it
like you have a 1/3 chance of picking a prize
then you have a 1/2 chance of picking a prize, but not really
switching doors should not have an effect on the outcome yet it somehow does

The important thing to remember is that Monty has to open a door with a goat behind it. If the door that was opened was entirely random, there wouldn't be this weird probability change. But since the door that opens always has a goat behind it, then there's a 2/3 chance that Monty didn't pick the other door because it had the prize behind it.
