用贝耶斯先验概率验证。
Then the game show host opens one of the doors you didn't pick to show a goat
这句话包含了信息。
书的主人公是一个患有自闭症的小孩。他给的解答:
Let the doors be called X, Y and Z.
Let Cx be the event that the car is behind door X and so on.
Let Hx be the event that the host opens door X and so on.
Supposing that you choose door X, the possibility that you win a car if you then switch your choice is given by the following formula
P(Hz ^ Cy) + P(Hy ^ Cz)
= P(Cy)·P (Hz ¦ Cy) + P(Cz)·P(Hy ¦ Cz)
= (1/3 · 1) + (1/3 · 1) = 2/3
So if you change, 2 times out of 3 you get a car. And if you stick, you only get a car 1 time out of 3.
And this shows that intuition can sometimes get things wrong. And intuition is what people use in life to make decisions. But logic can help you work out the right answer. |
