\noindent{\bf The Monty Hall problem}

There are three curtains, an announcer (Monty) and a player (you).  One
of the curtains contains a valuable prize and the other two are empty:
only Monty knows where the prize is.  You win the prize if you
guess correctly which curtain contains the prize.  Initially, you
select a curtain.  Then, Monty opens an empty curtain that
you did not choose.  Having eliminated that curtain from contention,
Monty offers you the option to select the remaining third curtain as a 
final choice.  Should you switch?
