Hi,
I have this design for a controller but i dont know the program for it?
Where can I find the code for it? I tried google coding but cannot find it. I normally write Pascal(Delphi) but this needs to be in Keil C for a 8051.
I need to get it working quickly. Who will help?
"If a sufficiently large number of code monkeys were given teletypes, would they eventually write UNIX...?"
That would be easy.
A more challenging task would be to come up with one of Cpt. Vince's monologues ;)

How do you know that they aren't already doing it...?
I would think that the number of code monkeys in service is a restricted figure, to avoid people to deduce the Peak Productive Power (PPP), so we may not be able to estimate if there are enough of them. Maybe hacking Logictech, Microsoft and Keytronic to retrieve sales figures for keyboards could help bounding the possible number of code monkeys :)
Infinite monkey theorem
en.wikipedia.org/.../Infinite_monkey_theorem
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 a given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare.

After sending the photo to the FBI labs for enhancing, and examining this Code-Monkey's work, it turns out that we are indeed doing the exact same project.
Although I have dual-monitors, a P4 w/ 2G, Altium Designer, Keil, Simulink, Actel's IDE, and an assortment of equipment, it looks like the monkey is ahead of schedule: and with fewer errors.
