Ever had a 4 am epiphany about the Infinite Monkey Theorem? That was me, wondering if this proverbial monkey could actually type anything. I got curious about how long it might take to generate something as simple as the minimal code to successfully execute cargo run
. I couldn't wait — I tried for about 4-5 hours before I hit my limit.
Maybe you've pondered the idea of completely random generation using a good old monkey and wondered how long it would take to recreate your favorite phrase using pseudorandom number generation.
