To prevent collegiate copycats, two graduate students at
the University of California at Berkeley have devised a
program that compares a student's submission with every
other term- paper on the Web.
"We essentially search a hundred million Web pages on
the Internet, interfacing with the top 20 search engines,"
==================
Does this finally allow the possibility of a test of the old hypothesis that
enough monkeys at enough typewriters would eventually produce Shakespeare's
plays?
Just a thought...
