Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #54867 Typewriter Monkeys
Instructions
This    often  used  is  the  one  that  the  monkeys  and  the    ok,  we  have  a  monkey  sitting  at  a  typewriter  and  the  claim  here  is  basically  if  you  leave  a  chance  in  a  time  long  enough  you  will  get  a  life,  don't  worry  about  it,  yes,  it's  strange.  Yes,  it's  wonderful:  but  leave  enough  matter  600  million  years  on  earth  and  you  will  have  life.  So,  with  the  monkey  sitting  at  the  typewriter,  chances  are  eventually  he  produces  the  complete  works  of  Shakespeare  Dowlas's  problem.  So,  there's  no  problem.  There  is  no  issue:  right?  You  just  leave  it  long  enough  and  you'll  find.  And  in  one  key    seconds,  the  monkey  might  well  eventually  get  to  you  the  complete  works  of  Shakespeare  but  he  doesn't  manage  to  do  it  in  600  million  years.  So,  what  I  decided  to  do  is  to  run  the  numbers  Instead  of  saying  typing  the  complete  work  of  Shakespeare,  I  just  ran  the  number  for  how  long  it  would  take  a  monkey  typing  one  key    second.  To  type  to  be  or  not  to  be  that  is  the  question.
