Generalized Monty Hall problem

A simulation of the Monty Hall problem outcomes for n doors (k opened) à la Tidyverse…

library(tidyverse)

# sample vectors whether they have one or more elements

monty <- function(doors = 3, monty_opens_doors = 1, n = 10000, seed = 0) {
	set.seed(seed)
	tibble(car = sample(doors, n, replace = TRUE),
	       choice = sample(doors, n, replace = TRUE)) %>% 
	  rowwise() %>% 
	  mutate(monty_chose = list(resample(setdiff(1:doors, c(car, choice)), monty_opens_doors)),
	         win_no_switch = car == choice,
	         win_switch = car == resample(setdiff(1:doors, unlist(c(choice, monty_chose))), 1)) %>% 
	  ungroup() %>% 
	  summarise(win_if_not_switching = sum(win_no_switch) / n() * 100,

So, switch…
