No, a computer cannot simulate random.

This is the problem with talking with people who's education is asymptotically close to zero.  I guess we do this the hard way.

So even if I have a PRNG which is guaranteed to go through ALL POSSIBLE PERMUTATIONS.  We are not going to see even ONE instance of the sorting behavior?  That's what you contend?

If a prism is a computer then YES the quenco is a computer too.a bit better now?

Your prisim fetish is only relevant IF you can show it can sort JUST LIKE A COMPUTER.  As you stated a quenco could before.  If you now want to say you were not competent enough to say that a quenco could sort JUST LIKE A COMPUTER.  That's cool.  Just say so. 

So either you were a moron to have said "just like a computer" because not being able to sort the vast majority of things that a computer can sort isn't very much like a computer OR you have to show how you encode/sort/output information on a prism JUST LIKE A COMPUTER.

Mark E:'sarkeizen has shown that the complexity theorem he
cites is applicable to profitis'

but apparantly not to prisms.I wonder why

Mark E:'sarkeizen has shown that the complexity theorem he cites is applicable to profitis'

but apparantly not to fish scales, or latex gloves, or my underwear or sharpies. I wonder why?  This obviously means that I am right!  It couldn't possibly that these are all distractions from the argument I just lost.

FTFY.

Mr sarkeizen you said that a two-bit sort requires algo-rythm did you not
