Monty Hall Experiment
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

This resource consists of a Java applet and expository text. The applet is a simulation of the Monty Hall experiment: a car is behind one door, goats are behind the other two doors. The player chooses a door and then the host opens another door. The player is given the option of switching to the remaining door. The stochastic behavior of the host and the probability of the player switching can be specified.
