In information theory, entropy is a measure of the uncertainty associated

with a random variable. In this context, the term usually refers to the

Shannon entropy, which quantifies the expected value of the information

% contained in a message, usually in units such as bits. In this context, a

'message' means a specific realization of the random variable.

Shannon denoted the entropy H of a discrete random variable X with possible

values {x1, ..., xn} as,

H(X) = E(I(X)).

E is the expected value,

I is the information content of X

Example usage

-------------

in = [.25 .25 .25 .25];

b = 'bit';

Entropy = info_entropy (in, b)
