A hypothetical . (I love hypothetical)
I made an assumption with all the previous discussions, that Monty changes the door between games.
But let us suppose that the car is always behind the same door; say door A.
There are 100 contestants away in a room somewhere and they are called out one by one to play. Then they leave without being able to contact any other contestants.
So, now the only variable avaliable is the 1 in 3 choice the contestant makes. As both other doors have goats every time.
Monty knows this, but obvioulsy the contestants don't.
So, will the effect be the same.
Should anyone like to write a program to run this I'm sure we would be duly appreciative.
