A new study reveals it would take far longer than the lifespan of our universe for a typing monkey to randomly produce Shakespeare. So, while the Infinite Monkey Theorem is true, it is also somewhat misleading.

The question that everyone has been dying to know has been answered. Finally! What will scientists study next?

    Irrelevant. The heat death of the universe is a constraint unrelated to the premise of the original problem.

      I don’t think it’s a constraint, it’s more like a measuring stick to try to show how ridiculously long that time is

        It’s really not that long, if we can’t get monkeys to write Shakespeare.
