Empirical solution of the Monty Hall problem
I doubt this is encyclop&aelig;dic. Would it be more suited to WikiSource?

If it is kept I don't see why it shouldn't be merged into Monty Hall problem.
 * Nominated by Blotwell
 * Merge with Monty Hall problem. Zzyzx11 | Talk 02:43, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Also, Cleanup so it is less technical. The technical stuff and the PERL source code makes it more intimidating to read. Zzyzx11 | Talk 02:46, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * On second thought, Transwiki to Wikisource. Monty Hall problem already has a non-technical explanation to its solution. Zzyzx11 | Talk 07:23, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikisource – Wikipedia isn't the appropriate place for source code. (Also, consider a rewrite in a more accessible language. This problem is often studied in math curricula, and I don't think it's common for math students to learn Perl.) android&harr;talk 04:13, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Send the source code to Wikisource, but mention empirical testing in the Monty Hall article (not necessarily this solution) and redirect. Meelar (talk) 07:26, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki. Megan1967 08:10, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: I think something like this would be very useful in Monty Hall problem as a last resort to settle doubt. However, it is too long to merge as is. I've written my own version of the concept and will post it in Monty Hall problem. Gazpacho 09:19, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, a similar program in Java is already listed under Monty Hall problem. Radiant_* 15:23, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikisource and put a link in the Monty Hall problem article. RickK 21:24, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki. I noticed that there was a category for source code in Wikisource.  This would fit perfectly there. Chris 02:04, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)
