Monty Hall Problem

The Monty Hall Problem is a probability puzzle based on a game show scenario. You choose one of three doors, behind one of which is a car (the prize), and behind the others are goats (no prize). After you pick a door, the host, who knows what’s behind each door, reveals a goat behind one of the other two doors. You then have the option to stick with your original choice or switch to the remaining closed door. Statistically, switching gives you a 2/3 chance of winning the car, while staying with your first choice offers only a 1/3 chance.
