If you've got nothing better to do, maybe you could try this and explain the result.

Open up a new document in MS Word, and type = rand (200,99)

Press the enter key, and wait 3 seconds.................can you explain the results? Apparently Microsoft can't.

It’s an embedded code used to generate text for testing after installing drivers or software.
Try different numbers in the brackets (1,1) (2,1) (1,2)
I think in early versions of word the code generated random text but it must have change to this paragraph so all the characters are tested.
