We all love monkeys 🐒
And so do mathematicians and theory lovers as well.
With this script, you give your desired word, and wait for the monkeys to write your sentence.
The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a
typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type any
given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare.

Wait...
You can give each monkey its own unique name.
