      There are 3 possible pasts that could lead to the scenario described; picking box 1 ball 1, box 1 ball 2, or box 2 ball 1. All are equally likely events. Either ball from box 1 leads to picking the other gold ball from that box, while the gold ball in box 2 leads to picking the silver ball from that box. Thus you get a second gold ball in 2 out of 3 cases.

          In the same way you've determined that box 3 is the source of 0% of first gold balls, you can also determine that box one is the source of twice as many first gold balls as box 2 is.

      Well 33% is the answer to the question his code is asking, which is the odds of getting a silver ball.
      The answer to the question in OP is probability of a gold ball, which is 66%

      [...]
      There are 2 gold balls and 1 silver ball left. The mathematical chance is 2/3 for a gold -
      Oh, wait, it says silver at the end. I thought it said gold.
      So its 1/3rd or 33%.

      You don't know exactly what happened in the first draw.
      The probability that you drew from the first box is 2/3.
      The probability that you drew from the second box is 1/3.
      This is why the probability that the next ball is gold is 2/3.

      >SO 2 POSSIBILITY
      Yes
      >THE GOLDEN BALL WAS IN THE FIRST OR IN THE SECOND
      Yes. And the probability that you drew from the first box is 2/3. The probability that you drew from the second box is 1/3.

      P(pick 2nd gold | picked 1st gold) = P(pick 2nd gold | inside box 1) * P(inside box 1 | picked 1st gold) + P(pick 2nd gold | inside box 2) * P(inside box 2 | picked 1st gold)
      P(inside box 1 | picked 1st gold) = 2/3
      P(inside box 2 | picked 1st gold) = 1/3

      Getting the first gold gives you better information about whether you're inside box 1 or 2 than 50/50. Conditional probability is never intuitive which is why israelites love using it to manipulate goyim. Statistics are just lying with numbers.

      People who say 1/3 were dropped on their head as babies.
      >hurr two gold balls left but only one silver therefore 1/3
      Riddle me this cuntfaces, what if there were 100 gold balls in the first box instead of two? Then the probability of picking gold as your next ball would be 99%?
      NO BECAUSE YOU PICKED A BOX NOT A BALL YOU MORONS
      And we know you didn't pick the last box, so there's only two possibilities left. 50:50

        You pick a random box and then pick a random ball from that box
        That means there are probability branches for each ball inside each box.

          This is where you’re actually wrong. Yes in real life this is true, but the initial conditions of the problem state that even if your first pick is ‘at random’ you will literally always get a gold ball first, no matter what. This doesn’t make sense in real life but it’s what the problem says happens. Everything starts after you pick a gold ball from a box.

    People who say 1/3rd understand statistics from a mathematical standpoint, but not how to apply it to real actual situations. The fact that you already pulled a gold ball is a given, and therefore the 2 silver box shouldn’t be included in the situation at all. It has been entirely removed from the situation before you begin calculating anything.

    The probability could be any number on a number line of infinity. The balls are both silver and gold simultaneously. They won’t appear to me or any other observer as gold or silver balls until me or someone else looks into the box and the ball appears as either silver or gold as the result of a randomized quantum wave function collapse.

    It’s just contrived. You can say 50% and pick from the same box or do a joint probability thing.

    It’s not 3/5 because the boxes delineate your choice.

    So you have 1 box which has a 50% given the draw. Another box that is 50%. And a third that is 100%.

    Then you have the chance of choosing the 50% or the 100%.

    So I dunno someone do that math.

      No, it’s not contrived. You’re just retarded. It says to choose from the same box, so you can eliminate the box with 2 silver balls immediately as you’ve already picked a box with a gold ball inside. Again you must draw from the same box, so either you’ve drawn from the box with two gold balls, and the next ball will also be gold, or you’ve drawn from the box with a gold and a silver ball, in which case the next ball will be silver. So it’s 50/50.

        Per the famous Monty hall let’s make a deal problem, the issue is you don’t know if it was gold ball 1 or two that was drawn from the hypothetical box 1. So your possible scenarios are you drew the gold ball one from box one, gold ball 2 from box 1 or gold ball from box 2. As its probability, you have to consider both the gold ball one and 2 draws. Also the question says what are the odds you would draw a silver ball, which would be 1/3 but this board is so retarded people keep saying 2/3rds because that’s how the let’s make a deal problem is historically framed.

      The silver silver box shouldn’t be included at all. And since you’ve already picked a gold ball, and only one box has two gold balls in it, the gold silver box should be considered as only having a silver ball in it. This question is about the boxes, not the balls

    50% I think. Since you pull from the same box as 1st pick, and its guaranteed that you picked a gold one in 1st pick, the third box is eliminated. Thus, we are picking from either box 1 or 2.
    If its box one, we pull gold.
    If its box two, we pull silver (success).
    Since we are pulling from either boxes then its a 50/50

                AND THE PROBABILITY OF PICKING A GOLDEN BALL FROM A BOX WITH 2 GOLDEN BALL IS 100%

                You picked a golden ball, but you do not know which one. Thus you must look at how the gold ball was acquired in order to know how likely you are to get another. To make the point more clear, consider a similar but exaggerated version of the puzzle.

                There are two very large boxes; one contains 999,999 gold balls, while the other contains 999,998 silver balls and one gold ball. You chose a box and random and pluck a ball from it. The ball is gold. How likely is it that the next ball you take from the same box is silver?

                The answer is clearly not 50%, because it is highly unlikely that the first gold ball came from the silver box.

                i know is the first and the second

                But there are three balls left after the first pick: two gold and one silver. How is that 50/50? Are you saying that if you pick a card from a deck, the chances are 50/50 for it to be the ace of spades: it either is ace if spades or it isn't?

                There could be an infinity of golden balls inside the first one and a near infinity of the gray balls inside the second and it still wouldnt change the probability.

                Get it?
                You pick the SET(box) of events. Once the box is chosen and the precondition (the pick of gold) is met you need to keep drawing from it.
                The precondition makes it a 50/50. Even if it's one in a million to meet it.

                Detach yourself immediately from the concept that you have any choice apart from your selected box.
                You've already narrowed down that only two boxes have golds. Two options - remember that.
                You now have to deduce what your odds are. If you pull the gold from the box, you can either pull a gold from the 1 box, or a silver from the 2 box. By this deduction, it is 50%.
                Trying to add the odds from other boxes when their total sums have zero relevance is why you end up with 2/3rds.
                It's 50%. Eat shit, brainlet.

                Also there's the prospect of nuclear armageddon on the horizon, so I'm just waiting to see whether it's all posturing or a potential reality, and I would rather be as far away from the theoretical danger zones.

                All of the boxes are relevant because you don't know what happened in the first draw so the probability from the first draw is what decides the probability that you have the box with 2 gold in front of you.

                You must then pick the next ball from the same box.

                You already picked the golden ball.
                Its established you have a gold ball in your hand.
                So, from there, what are the chances of picking another gold ball.
                You are either going to pick a gold ball or silver.

                You don't know exactly what happened in the first pick. You only know a part of what happened, but there are two different things that can have happened and they're not equally likely. That's why the probability from the first pick is relevant.

                You picked a gold ball. The first box has two gold balls.
                How do you know which of the two gold balls you picked? They are two separate balls.
                You have to consider both outcomes. The one where you picked the gold ball on the left and the one where you picked the gold ball on the right.

                The outcome of the next draw depends on how you got point where you have the gold ball in your hand.
                You don't know which box you picked so the probability of the next ball being gold depends on whether it was the first or the second box you picked.
                Because you have a gold ball, the probability that it was the first box you picked is 2/3.

                The question is predicated on everything that came before it. This is evidenced by the wording of the question.
                >the next ball
                Implying that we have just picked one ball out. This process of picking the ball was just described in detail, which is also modeled in my code exactly as written.
                >the same box
                Implying we are picking from the same box we just picked from, again which was described in detail.

                What you want is to disregard the pick we just made, which is to ignore the wording of both the entire problem and the question itself, as well as just common sense and math question standards.

                Instead of picking "the same box", you want to average the chance of pulling a ball out of all boxes with at least one gold ball.

                It's already been established that you picked a gold ball, from a box with two balls.
                Now the question starts.
                What are the chances that you pick a gold ball from that SAME box.
                You only have 1 ball left in the box.
                Now if you have the gold ball from the g/g box, the other one is gold.
                Now if you have the gold ball from the g/s box, its silver.
                There are only two out comes. You don't include the first ball you picked. We already know it's a gold ball.
                One is gold, one is silver.

                YOU TAKE A GOLD BALL
                IS IRRELEVAN WHICH BALL IS BUT IN WHICH BOX IT IS

                The disconnect is calculating the probability that the gold you chose was from the double gold. There are higher chances that that was the case.

                Something like a reverse monty hall. Where it's more likely you're already on the prize box due to your having had a higher chance of being on it in the first place from what you were shown. (note that you selected the first gold at random and it wasn't just given)

                You people really need to be more specific because it's really hard to pin down what you think my code is doing wrong and what the original question says, since your understanding of both is poor.
                >Because the first pick isn't included.
                I'm assuming that you mean the question is saying that the first pick isn't included, because it is certainly included in my code.
                The question states:
                >You pick a box at random
                >You put your hand in and take a ball from that box at random
                >It's a gold ball
                >What is the probability that the next ball you take from the same box will be silver?
                Nowhere in there does it say to discount your first pick. In fact, your first pick is integral to determining which box you just picked from, which is the major unknown, and given the fact that it says that you pick the next ball from the same box I would think it says the opposite.
                What you would be looking for is a question something like this:
                >What is the probability that you could pick another gold ball from a box that you can pick a gold ball from?
                In contrast, the question lays out a series of steps which I follow very carefully in my code, including only counting cases where I picked a gold ball first.

                >For every box which contains a gold ball, what are the chances that you could pick another gold ball out?

The choice is down to 1 of two boxes not 3/4 balls. You have already chosen one of the boxes and are picking from it again. It either has 1 silver or one gold in it. It does not have 2 golds and a silver.

                For simplicity: You never draw ball from the all silver box, that's part of the question.
                So you have two boxes in front of you. Those two boxes contain 4 balls. What are your chances of picking gold vs silver? Is it 50/50?
                No it's 3:1
                But you already picked 1 gold, so now it's 2:1 of picking another gold.

                it depends on if you see the two gold balls in the gold box as unique objects

                if you dont it is 1/2 but if you do it becomes 1/3
                it would be natural to assume they are unique since in the real world they would be. but by words they are not since we havent given them unique identities yet

              The probabilities involved with the first draw are irrelevant to the question being asked, and therefore can’t factor in to the statistical probability. The question isn’t asking what the probability is assuming you start at the very beginning, it’s asking what the probability is (given this situation in which you’ve already drawn a gold ball). The premise is basically creating a new universe with no history, where time begins with a gold ball in your hand from either box 1 or box 2.

                You only know a part of what happened in the first draw. You know that it was a gold ball but you don't know from which box it was.
                That's why you calculate the probability of the two possible things that might have happened.

                Yes. But it is irrelevant. Since it doesn’t matter which of the two golden balls from box 1 you might have picked, and there being 2 golden balls in that box didn’t actually increase your chance of picking that actual box, the situation we’re actually concerned with is basically either you have a box in front of you with another gold ball in it, or a box with a silver ball in it. The question is about the boxes, not the balls.

                It's not irrelevant what happened in the first draw. It's more likely that it was the first box you picked.
                Here you can compare it to another example that's the same problem but with different numbers. It can help explain why you calculate the probabilities of two different things that might have happened in the first draw.

        You picked a golden ball, but you do not know which one. Thus you must look at how the gold ball was acquired in order to know how likely you are to get another. To make the point more clear, consider a similar but exaggerated version of the puzzle.

        There are two very large boxes; one contains 999,999 gold balls, while the other contains 999,998 silver balls and one gold ball. You chose a box and random and pluck a ball from it. The ball is gold. How likely is it that the next ball you take from the same box is silver?

        The answer is clearly not 50%, because it is highly unlikely that the first gold ball came from the silver box.

          It’s because of the initial conditions of the problem, which state you picked a gold ball. The real actual probabilities of this choice (that would actually exist in the physical world if we were doing this) don’t matter because the initial conditions state you picked a gold ball. It’s essentially saying that even if you chose the box with 1 gold and 1 silver, you pick the gold ball from this box 100% of the time because that is what the initial conditions of the problem state. So you have to view this problem as if you have either box 1 or box 2 in front of you, with a gold ball from each of these boxes already removed, leading to a box with a gold ball in it and a box with a silver ball in it, which is why people are saying 50/50. This can’t work in real life because we have to concern ourselves with the first choice, but the hypothetical scenario the question describes has its initial conditions set in stone, so in this hypothetical thought experiment it doesn’t actually matter that choosing a gold ball means it’s more likely that you chose box 1 (which is true and I’m not debating that the probability would be 1/3rd in real life where we don’t have ironclad initial conditions altering things).

              In real life yes, but the initial conditions of this problem mean that even if you choose box 2, you will pick the gold ball instead of the silver ball in the first pick 100% of the time, because the problem says you picked a gold ball. Obviously this doesn’t make sense in real life, but the initial conditions of the problem make it so in this thought experiment.

          We can test this empirically. For this test you will need a six sided die and a coin.

          First, roll the die. A 1-2 represents the first box, a 3-4 the second, a 5-6 the third.

          If you chose the third box, start over. The initial condition cannot be met.

          If you chose the second box, flip a coin. On heads, you chose the gold ball, making this a valid attempt. The next ball will be silver, so record one silver result. On tails, you chose the silver ball. This is an invalid attempt, so start over.

          If you chose the first box, flip a coin. On heads or tails you chose a gold ball, so this is a valid and are guaranteed to draw the other gold next, so record a gold result.

          Do this until you have... 30 results marked. should be enough to make my point clear.

                I did read it. The first step of the setup is to chose a box, the second to choose a ball from the box. If the ball is not gold we start over, as the initial conditions were not met. Once the initial conditions are met we simply look at what other ball is still in the box, and record that as our second choice and thus the result of that iteration of the test.

          this has nothing to do with conditional probabilities. the inevitable outcome of the experiment is choosing 1 box, there are 3 boxes, if you choose randomly then the probability that you end up with 2g is 1/3.

    >"It's isn't 50%" fags seethe in this thread
    You have a 50% chance to pick a second gold ball from the same box since there are only two colors.
    Likewise, there are two other boxes, one that only has two of the same color (silver in this case), and then a possibility that one of the boxes is a mix with one of each, or has the same (gold) color.
    You only have a 25% chance to get another gold from a different box with the information you have in mind, but as one of those boxes (silver-only) has been nixed and you can only pull from the same box, the odds are only 50% and can ONLY be 50%.

    2/3fags are bootlicking retards who can’t think for themselves. They are vaccinated for sure.

    We are doing 600,000 trials.

    >100k g2-g1

    200k times you pick box 3
    >100k s2-s3
    >100k s3-s2

    2/3fags are removing removing the last half of trials because >tfw no gold. This leaves them with 200k g-g trials and 100k g-s trials. 2/3, ezpz.

    But this is not the problem being presented. You are selecting a box and the box produces a gold first. This is stated in the problem. You could have a box with one gold and a million silver in it and you would still pick the gold ball without fail. In other words, according to the construction of the problem, no matter how many times you pick the g-s box, you WILL draw a gold ball out first. It does not matter if this is improbable in reality, it is HARDCODED into the problem. You WILL choose a gold ball first no matter what.

    So 50chads remove the latter third of trials because >tfw no gold. But they KEEP ALL TRIALS IN WHICH BOX 2 WAS SELECTED. This is because the only selection meting made is of boxes, not balls. You choose a box and you get gold EVERY TIME.

    This preselection changes how it works out. The reason 2/3fags get it wrong is because of how they are excluding the trials (by the ball, rather than by the box).

    Knowing you got a gold ball allows you to exclude the S-S draws because it is impossible to draw a gold ball from a box with no gold ball. It is however possible to draw a gold ball from a G-S box. Because the problem HARD CODES drawing a gold ball, you will ALWAYS draw a gold ball first from the G-S box. It is literally how the problem is constructed.

      So if it is the construction of the problem that leads to this confusion, how would we word it to make 2/3 the correct answer?

      It’s a really subtle change, which is why so many people fuck this up:
      >IF you choose a gold ball, what is the probability te next ball from the same box will also be gold.

      That “if” is the game changer. At this point the 2/3fags are correctly handling how to solve this.

      But it doesn’t say “if”, it is hardcoded you get a gold ball. So fucking midwits go google the answer to a different problem or write some shitty code to answer this “if” question then pretend it applies to the picture in the OP. It does not.

      This is why 2/3fags can not defend their answer while 50chads can. 50chads are grappling with the problem as presented while 2/3fags are attempting (and failing) to find an authoritative answer to a different fucking problem.

      They will prove they do not understand by arguing with me about how this “if” doesn’t change anything. They probably didn’t even finish reading this far.

        The fact that it's given that you picked a gold ball doesn't tell you everything about what happened in the first draw. You know you got a gold ball but don't know which box you have chosen. Because you don't know what happened in the first draw, you look at the probabilities of what happened. Two different things can have happened, either you picked box 1 or you picked box 2, and the probability that you drew from the first box is 2/3.
        The probability that you drew from the second box is 1/3.

      >You are selecting a box and the box produces a gold first. This is stated in the problem. You could have a box with one gold and a million silver in it and you would still pick the gold ball without fail. In other words, according to the construction of the problem, no matter how many times you pick the g-s box, you WILL draw a gold ball out first. It does not matter if this is improbable in reality, it is HARDCODED into the problem. You WILL choose a gold ball first no matter what.

      This is simply not true. The problem implies that you grab a ball at random.

      If the balls were stacked on top of each other like
      G G S
      G S S

      and you always grabbed the top one, then yes this would be a valid answer and 50/50 would be correct. But it is not.

        Yes, because any ball pulled from the third box is an invalid start. Half of balls pulled from the second box are similarly invalid, and so are eliminated as well. Thus you have all pulls from the first box and half of pulls from the second box, and so must weigh the odds from the first box twice as heavily as from the second.

          No see, you’re still using statistics for things that don’t matter because they don’t fit the initial conditions. The way the problem is worded, even though this doesn’t make sense in real life, is that you always choose the gold ball first if you pick box two. You don’t have to discard the 50% of times where you pull the silver ball first, because that simply will never happen given the stated initial conditions of the problem.

      This is flawed logic, which becomes obvious if exaggerated. Instead of two ball boxes, use million ball boxes. One has all gold balls, the other has one gold and the rest silver. You blindly pick a box and then a ball. It is gold. How likely is it that the next ball from the same box is gold? Your system would claim 50/50, but I would claim it is all but certain; the only way the next ball is not silver is on that one in a million chance that I picked the box full of silvers and plucked out the singular gold within it.

        Pretend you follow the problem presented but always pick box two. You are going to draw 1000 “first draws” from box two. How many are gold according to the problem as presented?

        Hint: 1000, because it’s hardcoded into the fucking problem that you draw a gold ball. You can stuff infinite silver balls in the box and you still have a 100% chance of drawing gold first because that’s what the problem says happens.

          Sure, because you have discarded those 99.9999% of cases where silvers were drawn. Once we reintroduce the first box, then out of two million picks and draws we would see (on average) a million golds from box 1, a single gold from box 2, and those 999,999 silver draws which are discarded as not meeting the scenario.

            No, there are zero cases in which silver is drawn because the problem fucking states it is gold. If you run the problem over and over again it is gold every time if it is not gold, you did not follow directs and are not answering the correct problem.

        Yes, but the conditions of the problem don’t have to make sense in reality. The problem doesn’t state ‘IF’ you choose a gold ball, what will the chances be. It states you pick a box and you ‘DO’ take a gold ball out of it. Therefore in the meta space this problem exists in, you will always 100% of the time pick the gold ball first from the box of a million silvers, even though this makes no sense in real life.

          Forget about the fucking gold color
          If you only use the numbers, these are the possible combinations provided each time you picked the ball you got a different number for the sake of calculating the probability
          First pick ball 1 > 2 you picked box 1
          First pick ball 2 > 1 you picked box 1
          First pick ball 3 > 4 you picked box 2

            BALL 1 ,2 ,3 87 DO NOT EXIST

            YOU ARE NUMERING THEM

            BOX 1 BALLS
            BOX 2 BALLS
            THESE ARE THE CASES

            Throw in a hundred gold balls to the first box retard. I guess it will make the probability of second pick being gold 99%.

                99% PROBABILITY BECAUSE I CAN CHOICE FIRST 99 DIFFERENT BALLS WHO DO NOT CHANGE THE RESULT?

                IF I HAVE 99 IN THE FIRST BO OR JUST 1
                THE SECOND PICKING WILL GAVE THE SAME RESULT

                WHICH EVER BOX I CHOOSE

    Understanding that americans, who consider themselves intelligent, ignore that new information UPDATES probabilities explains a lot about why the usa fails in almost everything it has ever done in its entire history.

    People who say 2/3 (66%) think these two questions are asking the same thing:

    >What is the probability of picking a box with at least one gold ball?

    >What is the probability of picking a gold ball out of a box that already has a gold ball?

      People who say 50% think these two questions are asking the same thing:
      >What is the average chance of picking out two gold balls from all boxes with at least one gold ball?
      >What is the chance of selecting a box at random, selecting a random gold ball, then selecting another gold ball from the same box?

        for the last time

        take ball 1 from box 1 first
        take ball 2 from box 1 first

        THE CASE IS THE SAME
        A BALL FROM BOX 1

            fuck off tard

            you can't argue back and cry like the tranny you re

            [...]

            The disconnect is calculating the probability that the gold you chose was from the double gold. There are higher chances that that was the case.

            Something like a reverse monty hall. Where it's more likely you're already on the prize box due to your having had a higher chance of being on it in the first place from what you were shown. (note that you selected the first gold at random and it wasn't just given)

            THIS IS NOT A MONTY HALL
            having more ball in a boxes do not change the result of picking boxes

            2/3rds is the objectively correct answer

            box 1 1
            box 1 2
            is the same cases tard

    It amuses me that the people who demand that the answer is 2/3 are answering a question they IMAGINE has been asked, rather than the question that HAS been asked.
    This poor reading comprehension explains why they are failures in life and cannot understand why.

    This thread is really sad.
    Since you obviously did not pick from box 3, you either picked from box 1 or 2.
    So 50%.

    All that nonsense calculations are just wrong. People who come to the solution of 2/3 ommit that you must have dropped all the cases where you put your hand in box 3, otherwise you could not have come to the state where you hold a golden ball.

    Try to use logic instead of statistics if you don't know how to do it correctly.

      The number 3 doesn't come from the boxes you fucking retard
      It comes from the fact there are 3 gold balls.

        DO NOT EXIST

        GOLDEN BALL FROM BOX 1 AND GOLDEN BALL FROM BOX 2

        THESE 2 ARE THE CASES

        IF I TAKE ANY BALL FROM BOX 1 HE RESULT IS THE SAME

        BOX PROBLEM NOT BALL PROBLEM

    This meme is fascinating and amusing to me.
    I LOVE reading the comments every time.
    You get NPCs adamant that their rote math answer is correct because they imagine the question conforms to some probability problem in some textbook and they can appear 'smart', when in fact it is a trick question to weed out the unimaginative, the illiterate and the impractical from the workforce.
    Americans amuse me.
