    The whole premise of the analogy is that the typed characters are random, which is why the animal in it is one that doesn’t understand written English. The point being that over an infinite amount of time, even totally random typing will, by definition, eventually produce any specified sequence.

    OOP doesn’t get it, nor does anyone who finds this clever.
