A robot who updates its beliefs using Bayesian reasoning has just obtained measurement z from pointing its sensor array at a door. It would like to determine whether the door is open (P(open|z)) before driving forward. The prior probability of P (open) =  0.3  and P (closed) = 0.7 Your sensor model indicates that the likelihood of seeing that observation is P(z|open) = 0.6 and P (z|closed) = 0.3. Calculate the posterior P (open|z).
