Ok, so I am a big fan of probability questions.
Some of you may have heard this problem before, but hopefully not...
Here we go:
You are on a TV Game show and the host gives you 3 doors to choose from, Door A, B, and C. Behind one of these doors is the $50,000 grand prize. The other 2 doors have nothing behind them.
You pick door A.
At that point the host opens door B, and shows you that nothing is behind that door. So, there is now door A and C left. One of those has 50K and the other has nothing. He gives you the option to switch your door from A to C.
The question is, should you switch to C? should you stay with A? or does it even make a difference?
