Hello! The nice thing about pseudo code is that it doesn’t need to work, it just needs to show the process that real code would take. The Monty Hall game is pretty straightforwards, so I’d just step through it.

1) Randomly select the winning door2) Randomly select the player’s choice (or take an input) 2) Randomly select a door other than the player’s choice and the winning door to be eliminated3) If the player is going to switch, their choice becomes a door that they have not already chosen and that was not eliminated. 4) The player wins if their choice is the same as the winning door. 

So if you want that as more code-based pseudocode… I’ve already written a solution, so it’s hard to go back and make pseudocode that doesn’t look an awful lot like the solution. But you’d want something like this: 

player_choice = rand(3)winning_door = rand(3)eliminated_door = # a number between 0 and 2 that does not equal player_choice or winning_door

if switch   player_choice = # a number between 0 and 2 that does not equal player_choice or player_choiceif player_choice == winning_choice    confetti()

The tricky part is picking those doors, and how it’s solved is going to be dependent on what language you’re using. I’d save figuring that out for the actual solution. But hey, pseudo-code - ‘solve thing’ is super valid.

I’ve stuck a solution below for funsies. I wrote it in Ruby since that’s mostly what I’m working in these days (and I because love it) (sorry Java)
