Bertrand's box paradox is a famous problem in probability theory that demonstrates how different assumptions about a problem can lead to different conclusions, highlighting the importance of carefully considering the setup of a probability scenario. The classic version of the paradox involves three boxes: 1. **Box A** contains two gold coins. 2. **Box B** contains two silver coins. 3. **Box C** contains one gold coin and one silver coin.
