Sure it can, "print hello world in C++"

#include 

int main() {
  std::cout << "hello world\n";
  return 0;
}

"print d ft just rd go t in C++"

#include 

int main() {
  std::cout << "d ft just rd go t\n";
  return 0;
}

The latter is a "novel program" it's never seen before, but it's possible because it's seen a pattern of "print X" and the X goes over here. That doesn't mean it understands what it just did, it's just got millions (?) of patterns it's been trained on.
