Comment on The Monty Hall Problem by Damian Manifold

@Liz Parkhurst -

Hi, Ron,
The flaw in your argument is that the problem changes once the Goat door is opened - that action turns the choice from a 3-way to a 2-way choice, i.e. from 33-33-33 to 50-50.
It’s a question of timing.
And, given the state of my lawn, yes I’d rather have a goat!
Cheers,
Liz

I’ve heard a few explanations and I’m convinced. I think the point is it doesn’t matter about the new informations.
Check out this simulation that iterations through many random choices.

Does that win you over?

Damian,

Have you tried using a reset style sheet to get around this problem?

I’ve been using one for a while now and would recommend it.

Tripoli is pretty good as well http://monc.se/tripoli/
