Learning the Monty Hall problem

Read Original

This article provides a technical analysis of the Monty Hall probability puzzle. It examines the optimal strategy (switching doors) under the standard assumptions and explores how a rational player would learn this strategy from observing the game's history. The discussion involves Bayesian updating, parameter estimation for host behavior, and the conditions under which switching becomes advantageous.
