Entropy
01
エントロピー, 熱力学的無秩序
a thermodynamic measure of the degree of disorder or randomness in a system, denoted by S
例
When ice melts into water at a higher temperature, the entropy of the system increases.
氷がより高い温度で水に溶けるとき、システムのエントロピーが増加します。
Gas molecules in a container have higher entropy than the same molecules in a more ordered liquid state.
容器内のガス分子は、より秩序だった液体状態の同じ分子よりも高いエントロピーを持っています。
02
a numerical measure of the uncertainty or unpredictability of an outcome or information source
例
The entropy of the message stream was calculated to optimize compression.
High entropy in a password indicates greater security.
