A lot of intuition! You guess on door #1. The host is staying in front of door #3. Door #2 is 2 meters away from him, nevertheless he opens that door. What would you expect to find behind door #3? A goat?! (Let us exclude double-crossing!). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stefan Pochmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2005 3:47 PM Subject: [Speed cubing group] Re: (Off topic)3 doors...
Changing wins if and only if you initially chose the wrong door, i.e. two times of three. Can you explain why your suggestion makes this wrong? Cheers!

(He is right-handed Or left-handed. Maybe he has to take a halfstep to open a certain door etc.). If he now opens the "easiest" door, Not changing wins more often than one time of three. If he opens the other door, changing will win more often than two times of three. Yahoo! Groups Links ------------------------ Yahoo!
