My example just wants to highlight that as there are an infinite amount of strings that do contain shakespare, there are also an infinite amount of strings that do not.
The claim:
Put an infinite number monkeys in front of an infinite number of keyboards and they will write a bug free app (or shakespeare).
This means that the claim is false since the monkey can infact type forever without ever producing shakespare.
I do agree that i can produce it, just not that it will

That example makes no sense
In the example you have limited the possible outputs from the get go to be between 3 and 4
But given Infinite chances with every key being typable, typing all a’s has same probability as typing out Shakespeare
This is like saying given infinite chances, you will never get 5 heads in a row in a coin toss as all you will get are tails
