i am losing my mind
i've heard of the monty hall problem before but couldn't wrap my head around it and just chalked it up to bored mathematicians getting back at all the jocks that bullied them by making up some bullshit but no its fucking real
if you dont want to sit through 5 minutes of NERD SHIT here is the premise:
there are 3 prizes behind 3 doors in a game show. one is a car, the other two are goats. you have a 1/3 chance of guessing the door that hides the car.
after selecting the door you want to open, hoping its a car, the host opens one of the two doors and reveals a goat.
there are now 2 doors, each with a 50% chance of containing a car or a goat. naturally one would expect that their chances of getting a car rose from 33% to 50%, but that is not the case. sticking with the first still only nets a 33% chance while switching to the other door that was not revealed or chosen by the player nets a 66% chance of getting a car.
