...and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?

Answer: Yes, there is an advantage.

Q: Why?

Don't Google this because it's no fun that way.

If you're thinking it's 50/50 at the end you're incorrect. If you give up and can't prove it's not look up 'Monty Hall problem'.

Yes, it is in your advantage to pick door number 2, because they always put the car between the goats to prevent them from seeing each other and becoming scared or enamored.
