::Sorry for inserting misinformation. Could you please tell me why my program guesses correctly 50% of the time instead of 2/3 of the time? It's the Common Lisp one.
:::Your "show-goat" only depends on "round" (the state of which door has the car and which ones have the goat). In the actual Monty Hall problem, which goat the host shows also depends on the choice that the player makes (i.e. "initial" in your code) -- in particular, you need to make sure that the goat that the host shows is ''not'' the door that the player chose (i.e. "goat" should never be equal to "initial"). --[[User:Spoon!|Spoon!]] 07:36, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Also, when the player chooses the winning door, preferably the goat door shown should be chosen randomly from the two available. If you always choose the one the has lower index then the player can use the ordering of the doors to get more information. --[[User:Spoon!|Spoon!]] 07:53, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
