通过昨天在课堂上尝试向朋友解释蒙蒂霍尔问题,我们最终用 Python 编写代码来证明如果你总是交换,你会赢 2/3 次。我们想出了这个:

import random as r

#iterations = int(raw_input("How many iterations? >> "))
iterations = 100000

doors = ["goat", "goat", "car"]
wins = 0.0
losses = 0.0

for i in range(iterations):
    n = r.randrange(0,3)

    choice = doors[n]
    if n == 0:
        #print "You chose door 1."
        #print "Monty opens door 2. There is a goat behind this door."
        #print "You swapped to door 3."
        wins += 1
        #print "You won a " + doors[2] + "\n"
    elif n == 1:
        #print "You chose door 2."
        #print "Monty opens door 1. There is a goat behind this door."
        #print "You swapped to door 3."
        wins += 1
        #print "You won a " + doors[2] + "\n"
    elif n == 2:
        #print "You chose door 3."
        #print "Monty opens door 2. There is a goat behind this door."
        #print "You swapped to door 1."
        losses += 1
        #print "You won a " + doors[0] + "\n"
    else:
        print "You screwed up"

percentage = (wins/iterations) * 100
print "Wins: " + str(wins)
print "Losses: " + str(losses)
print "You won " + str(percentage) + "% of the time"

我的朋友认为这是一个很好的方法(并且是一个很好的模拟),但我有我的怀疑和担忧。它真的足够随机吗?

我遇到的问题是所有选择都是硬编码的。

这是对蒙蒂霍尔问题的好还是坏的“模拟”?怎么来的?

你能想出一个更好的版本吗?

您的解决方案很好,但是如果您想要更严格地模拟所提出的问题(以及更高质量的 Python;-),请尝试:

import random

iterations = 100000

doors = ["goat"] * 2 + ["car"]
change_wins = 0
change_loses = 0

for i in xrange(iterations):
    random.shuffle(doors)
    # you pick door n:
    n = random.randrange(3)
    # monty picks door k, k!=n and doors[k]!="car"
    sequence = range(3)
    random.shuffle(sequence)
    for k in sequence:
        if k == n or doors[k] == "car":
            continue
    # now if you change, you lose iff doors[n]=="car"
    if doors[n] == "car":
        change_loses += 1
    else:
        change_wins += 1

print "Changing has %s wins and %s losses" % (change_wins, change_loses)
perc = (100.0 * change_wins) / (change_wins + change_loses)
print "IOW, by changing you win %.1f%% of the time" % perc

一个典型的输出是:

Changing has 66721 wins and 33279 losses
IOW, by changing you win 66.7% of the time

    carDoor     = random.choice(doors)

你提到所有的选择都是硬编码的。但如果你仔细观察,你会发现你认为的“选择”实际上根本不是选择。蒙蒂的决定不失一般性,因为他总是选择后面有山羊的门。你的交换总是取决于蒙蒂的选择,因为蒙蒂的“选择”实际上不是一个选择,你也不是。您的模拟给出了正确的结果..

我用列表理解来模拟问题的解决方案

from random import randint

N = 1000

def simulate(N):

    car_gate=[randint(1,3) for x in range(N)]
    gate_sel=[randint(1,3) for x in range(N)]

    score = sum([True if car_gate[i] == gate_sel[i] or ([posible_gate for posible_gate in [1,2,3] if posible_gate != gate_sel[i]][randint(0,1)] == car_gate[i]) else False for i in range(N)])

    return 'you win %s of the time when you change your selection.' % (float(score) / float(N))

打印模拟(N)

    #Turn 1:

    print selected_door
    doors.remove(selected_door)
    print 'You have selected a door with an unknown object'
    #Turn 2:
    while moderator_door == 'car':
        moderator_door = choice(doors)
    doors.remove(moderator_door)
    print 'Moderator has opened a door with ', moderator_door
    #Turn 3:

我发现这是解决问题最直观的方法。

import random

# game_show will return True/False if the participant wins/loses the car:
def game_show(knows_bayes):

    doors = [i for i in range(3)]

    # Let the car be behind this door
    car = random.choice(doors)

    # The participant chooses this door..
    choice = random.choice(doors)

    # ..so the host opens another (random) door with no car behind it
    open_door = random.choice([i for i in doors if i not in [car, choice]])

    # If the participant knows_bayes she will switch doors now
    if knows_bayes:
        choice = [i for i in doors if i not in [choice, open_door]][0]

    # Did the participant win a car?
    if choice == car:
        return True
    else:
        return False

# Let us run the game_show() for two participants. One knows_bayes and the other does not.
wins = [0, 0]
runs = 100000
for x in range(0, runs):
    if game_show(True):
        wins[0] += 1
    if game_show(False):
        wins[1] += 1

print "If the participant knows_bayes she wins %d %% of the time." % (float(wins[0])/runs*100)
print "If the participant does NOT knows_bayes she wins %d %% of the time." % (float(wins[1])/runs*100)

这输出类似

If the participant knows_bayes she wins 66 % of the time.
If the participant does NOT knows_bayes she wins 33 % of the time.

更新的解决方案

更新,这次使用enum模块。同样,为了简洁,同时使用 Python 最具表现力的特性来解决手头的问题:

from enum import auto, Enum
from random import randrange, shuffle

class Prize(Enum):
    GOAT = auto()
    CAR = auto()

items = [Prize.GOAT, Prize.GOAT, Prize.CAR]
num_trials = 100000
num_wins = 0

# Shuffle prizes behind doors. Player chooses a random door, and Monty chooses
# the first of the two remaining doors that is not a car. Then the player
# changes his choice to the remaining door that wasn't chosen yet.
# If it's a car, increment the win count.
for trial in range(num_trials):
    shuffle(items)
    player = randrange(len(items))
    monty = next(i for i, p in enumerate(items) if i != player and p != Prize.CAR)
    player = next(i for i in range(len(items)) if i not in (player, monty))
    num_wins += items[player] is Prize.CAR

print(f'{num_wins}/{num_trials} = {num_wins / num_trials * 100:.2f}% wins')

以前的解决方案

另一个“证明”,这次是使用 Python 3。注意使用生成器来选择 1)Monty 打开的门,以及 2)玩家切换到的门。

import random

items = ['goat', 'goat', 'car']
num_trials = 100000
num_wins = 0

for trial in range(num_trials):
    random.shuffle(items)
    player = random.randrange(3)
    monty = next(i for i, v in enumerate(items) if i != player and v != 'car')
    player = next(x for x in range(3) if x not in (player, monty))
    if items[player] == 'car':
        num_wins += 1
        
print('{}/{} = {}'.format(num_wins, num_trials, num_wins / num_trials))

今天阅读有关著名的蒙蒂霍尔问题的一章。这是我的解决方案。

import random

def one_round():
    doors = [1,1,0] # 1==goat, 0=car
    random.shuffle(doors) # shuffle doors
    choice = random.randint(0,2) 
    return doors[choice] 
    #If a goat is chosen, it means the player loses if he/she does not change.
    #This method returns if the player wins or loses if he/she changes. win = 1, lose = 0

def hall():
    change_wins = 0
    N = 10000
    for index in range(0,N):
        change_wins +=  one_round()
    print change_wins
