Re: Monty Python Information 16 Years Ago by WaltP [QUOTE=jwenting;400598]The third sounds like a compilation of fragments from the TV shows. If the bit you mentioned is on any of the three, it will be on that one.[/QUOTE] It is a compilation of skits. It was their first movie but I'm not sure if they were TV bits or not. I don't remember seeing that skit in the movie, though.

David Re: Monty Python Information 16 Years Ago by lasher511 No problem Re: Monty Hall Problem 14 Years Ago by VernonDozier You're getting the right answers and the logic seems OK. If you're looking for a critique of the code, I'd use more descriptive variable names and add comments so people can follow the logic more easily. In particular, you have a variable that you call other and initialize to 22, which is a value that will be illegal. I'd have it be -999999 or … Re: Monty Hall Problem 14 Years Ago by JamesCherrill Like Vernon says, but also you can make a "bogus" value totally clear at zero overhead by declaring it as static final: public static final int BOGUS = -999999; then: var = BOGUS; if (var == BOGUS) { ... etc Re: Monty Hall Problem 14 Years Ago by BestJewSinceJC Von Savant problem?

This assumes that the host is not trying to make you lose. If you have these assumptions then you can difinitivly answer saying that you should switch everytime because: - the… Re: Monty Hall Problem 14 Years Ago by yilmazhuseyin I saw this problem in a movie (I think its name was 21) and I never thought about it.

Working on a Monty Hall program...three door 12 Years Ago by rollingapes All of this is my code. The only thing my teacher gave me was the function names, button class and graphics class. The rest of the code is things I did myself. Re: Please Help! Working on a Monty Hall program...three door 12 Years Ago by woooee We don't have the Button class so can't test your code. Also, if the Button class does not provide a callback (way to call a function when clicked) you will have to write your own. So far you have done very little, even the easy things like randomly choose one door, get the player's selection, etc. so there probably won't be many replies.
