You are a contestant on a game show. There are three closed doors in front of you. The game show host tells you that behind one of these doors is a million dollars in cash, and that behind the other two doors there are trashes. You do not know which doors contain which prizes, but the game show host does. The game you are going to play is very simple: you pick one of the three doors and win the prize behind it. After you have made your selection, the game show host opens one of the two doors that you did not choose and reveals trash. At this point, you are given the option to either stick with your original door or switch your choice to the only remaining closed door. To maximize your chance to win a million dollars in cash, should you switch? Choices: A) Yes B) No C) It doesn't matter because the probability for you to win a million dollars in cash stays the same no matter if you switch or not.
