Stay win rate
Not run
Monty Hall Simulator
Simulate stay and switch strategies under the classic host-knows Monty Hall rules.
Switch win rate
Not run
- Exact stay probability
- 33.3%
- Exact switch probability
- 66.7%
- Trials completed
- Not run
Exact probabilities stay fixed; simulation varies by seed.
Run the simulation to fill Monte Carlo metrics and convergence.
| Trial | Stay wins | Stay rate | Switch wins | Switch rate |

P(stay) = 1 / doors; P(switch) = (doors - 1) / doors
How?
How this is calculated
The simulator uses the standard host-knows rule set: the prize is placed uniformly, the contestant chooses uniformly, the host opens losing unchosen doors, and switching wins exactly when the initial choice was wrong.
Formula: P(stay) = 1 / doors; P(switch) = (doors - 1) / doors
