Another way to show that this is a false claim is to directly calculate the amount of information entropy before and after opening the...

No. It just means that your assumption is wrong. Look, your assumption is basically that something happened which is so fast that...

That is an impossible assumption. The differential Maxwell’s equations hold at a point. So there is no delay Similarly here.

Thanks for the positive response. However, the web page attempts to portray the Maxima/wxMaxima computer algebra software which is...

That is cool. If you want to do more in the future you might consider an Insights article or a series of them where everything can be...

Why do you keep ignoring us when we point out this isn't true?

Note that your modified game is only the same as the normal one if this "awkward situation" is dealt with somehow - perhaps re-playing...

Here are the results of the 200 game sim. You are welcome to run analysis on the randomly generated numbers to assure yourself they're...

The two versions of Monty Hall, in terms of calculation look like: Monty Hall (proper game) has three equally likely scenarios...

This lies at the root of your misunderstanding. Gravity is the name we give to the phenomenon. There's gravitational force and...

If it's not obvious, do the math, systematically without any intuitive reasoning. Make sure you use a consistent sign convention. All...

It was far easier than I had thought. Bayes theorem is $$P(H|E)=\frac{P(E|H) \ P(H)}{P(E)}$$ There are ##N## doors. The contestant...

I see what you did there :wink:. But it made me realize that I don't think that I have ever seen a Bayesian analysis of the Monty Hall...

But there is. You keep saying this, but saying it doesn't make it true. This isn't politics. And then you received additional...

For example, someone in my class at school insisted that if Liverpool Football Club played our local village team, then the result would...
