Reminds me of a program in Homestuck. It’s code that iterates until the author/universe dies, then executes some unknown code. The coding language is ~ath, or TilDeath.
Not necessarily. I don’t have the numbers in front if me, but there is actually a probability that, past that point, something is so unlikely that you can consider it to be impossible (I.e. will never happen within the lifetime of the universe)
The most beautiful thing about this program is that it would work.
Various bit flips will once lead to all numbers being in the correct order. No guarantee the numbers will be the same, though…

Yet… The chance is never zero 😁
Might also take a very long time (or a large amount of radiation).
Those bitflips are probably more likely to skip the section erroneously than waiting for the array to be sorted.
Fair enough! But won’t they flip again to start the program?
The OS would crash entirely before that happens
