- An Easter Egg is an unexpected surprise -- an undocumented procedure or unauthorized feature that's playful in nature or gives credit to the software developer or chip designer. Like their namesakes, Easter Eggs can be quite elusive and hard to find.
Here is a very simple Easter Egg for you to try:
1. Open a new document in Microsoft Word
2. Copy and paste =rand (200,99) and hit enter
