If an infinite number of monkeys typing for eternity would eventually create the entire works of Shakespeare, how many monkeys would it take, and how long would it take them, to create Survey Central?

They could never do it at random! If mandy was in charge of her monkey minions then they may just manage it so long as Bill was there as her advisor (and didn't mind mandy eating him when she was done!)

It would take 42 monkeys, seven and a half million years.
wait
strike that
reverse it

They could never do it. Survey Central, and its users, are much more entertaining than Shakespeare.

(I really enjoyed that last sentence.)
*falls down laughing*

Three Pygmy monkeys, 3.2 seconds.

Kidding, Bill!

I just couldn't see you letting him live...........

Three days.

Nothing happens by chance.

561

the answer is obviously 7.4 times the square root of the length of each monkey's tail

mu

It'll take as many monkeys as there is monkey loving SC users.& it wont take too long either they'll have all the help they need from the monkeee loving individuals here.

monkeys: ∞
time: √ π

Actually, I'm surprised that bill hasn't already made Survey Central RFC2795 compliant.

Six, and about a week.

So...ahh...like how long did it take you to type out this survey?

A million years, give or take a few decades.

It would take 1298749871290 monkeys and it would take them 3087487587 years.

So, Bill, how many monkeys were there?

1 monkey 10 days

punch the gosh darned monkey already!!!

LOVE your little Monkee slide>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>That made My Day THANKS.................
You are sooooo creative....You go you little monkee you.....

I like the typing one best! Here are mine:

for some reason those look like Gearbox...

lol Maybe you haven't seen her gearbuttedness for a while? Or maybe everything I paint is secretly or subconsciously in homage to her. At least you didn't say they look like Phi.

One MILLION years.

I loved your little monkeys-especially the swimming one!

3,847 monkeys typing for 12,035 years, 3 months, 1 week, two days, 5 hours, 13 minutes, and 57 seconds. More or less.

Omigod! They're beautiful!!!!!!

*** awwww, shucks***

24 monkeys typing for 224 years

No monkey's could create this place.

Apologies if you have already answered this but why do you like monkeys so much?

hmmmmm
Good question.

I don't really. I just like to infect others with strange ideas...like Monkeee mania
then I sit back and watch it spread. It's mind control.

Clever gurl, aren't I? Look at all my followers. Mind you, I love the way monkeeeees have brought me closer to some very incredible, fascinating, beautiful, wonderful people. Which actually makes me love monkeeeees. It all comes full circle. It's good for us all. Monkeeeeeee love...spread the word.
*kiss*

Monkeeeee love? Does this involve bizarre aerial and acrobatic acts of passion? (he asked hopefully)

Yes. Wanna play?

You painted those?! Wow, they are fabulous!! Is Gearbox your cat?

Thanks, they're both parts of much much larger murals. Yep, Gearbox is the cat- her face is kind of similar to that of the first of those two monkeys, sort of. Phi's face is more similar to the second.

LOL But does he like to climb trees and swing from the branches?

2 sec. 1 to think about it ,1 sec to do it.

I hate Shakespeare

Come now little fella...no need to be so negative!

I'm sorry...Forgive me?

Of course

You may have to wait until I pass the physical. (he said twistedly)

2-3 monkeys, probably a week tops LOL

*snaps on a latex glove*

NOT AGAIN!

3 little monkeys... ha!

Bend over!

Dear sweet gentle kind docile Twistermine.
I will if you will.

Deal!!!!!

(gulp!) Ahh...maybe I should rephrase that.

they would never be done and it would take an infinite amount

youve answered your own question. an infinite amount of monkeys, and it would take them eternity.
