The Digital Monkey Theorem: On the Theoretical Possibility of Randomly Generating a Functional MS-DOS “Hello, World!” Executable
The paper explores the Infinite Monkey Theorem through a computational lens, positing that a program could randomly generate an MS-DOS executable to output “Hello, World!” With infinite time, while probabilities are low, the concepts of randomness, chaos, and software evolution are examined, integrating practical implementations and evolutionary algorithms to navigate this complex exploration.
