In herbertm533/montyhall2: Monty Hall Problem Game

Description

play_n_games() plays the Monty Hall Problem game a assigned amount of times.

Usage

play_n_games(n = 100)

Arguments

n	= The number of times the Monty Hall game will be run.

Details

The game replicates the game on the TV show "Let's Make a Deal" where there are three doors for a contestant to choose from, one of which has a car behind it and two have goats. The contestant selects a door, then the host opens a door to reveal a goat, and then the contestant is given an opportunity to stay with their original selection or switch to the other unopened door. There was a famous debate about whether it was optimal to stay or switch when given the option to switch, so this simulation was created to test both strategies.

Value

The function returns a data frame with the results of the Monty Hall game simulations. The rows contain the game strategy information (stay or switch). The columns contain the game outcome information (win or lose).

Examples

  play_n_games( n=100 )
