Begin by answering the questions, even if you have to guess. The first
time you answer the questions you will not be told whether you are correct
or not.
Once you have answered all the questions, answer them again using the
simulation to help you. This time you will get feedback about each individual
answer.

In the Monty hall problem, the contestant is shown three doors. Two
of the doors have goats behind them and one has a car. The contestant
chooses a door. Before opening the chosen door, Monty Hall opens a
door that has a goat behind it. The contestant can then switch to
the other unopened door, or stay with the original choice.
