Switch doors—or does a changed host policy change the answer?
This is the context Jev receives before answering the typed question.
{
"setup": "A prize is uniformly placed behind one of three doors. You choose a door without information.",
"host_policy": "The host knows the prize location, always opens an unchosen empty door (randomly if there are two), and always offers a switch.",
"observation": "The host has opened an unchosen empty door. You may keep your door or take the other unopened door."
}Which strategy now gives the greater probability of winning under the stated host policy?
Replace the three doors with one hundred, stating exactly what the host reveals.
