[ 224. Probability ]
A question i got from sabe's web. Really boggles the mind.
Question:
In a gameshow, there are three doors, and behind one of the doors exists a prize. A contestant has to select a door, and indicate his decision without opening it. The gamemaster will then open one of the other two doors that does not contain the prize. If both doors do not contain prizes, the gamemaster will just open one of them at random. The contestant is then given the opportunity to change his door choice - should he? or rather... would it matter?
Think about this. This is really tricky... i'll answer in a day or two. Can leave a guess at the comment. =) |
