Shannon’s Entropy: Measuring Uncertainty in Order and Chaos
At its core, Shannon’s entropy quantifies uncertainty in probabilistic systems, revealing how disorder emerges even in structured processes. This concept bridges information theory with physical and abstract realms, showing that unpredictability can be measured, analyzed, and even leveraged. From strategic decision-making to natural patterns, entropy helps decode the balance between chaos and order. Defining Entropy: …
