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?
But not zero.
Basically nothing is ever truly zero
Someone wiser than me already said that it already has happened: 1 ape did, in fact, write the complete works of Shakespeare.
ape != monkey
Apes are monkeys though, just like we’re apes and birds are dinosaurs
We are apes and birds are dinosaurs, but monkeys and apes are distinct categories under primates so no, apes are not monkeys.
apes ⊂ monkeys, actually.
monkey c monkey do
Fair enough. I wouldn’t want to insult the Librarian.

Hello “Zero”!
The probability of lots of things is zero. The probability of a monkey typing a Chinese character on an English keyboard is zero.
Similar idea: there are an infinite amount of numbers between zero and one, but none of those numbers is two.
