Defining complexity: use a computerized version of the old idea of a monkey at a typewriter eventually typing the works of Shakespeare. Of course a modern monkey uses a computer instead of a typewriter. A monkey randomly typing 0s and 1s into a universal binary computer has some chance of getting it to do any computation, produce any output (Chaitin 1975)
The input/output graph of this or any other universal computer is a microcosm of all cause/effect relations that can be demonstrated by deductive reasoning or numerical simulation.
