Entropy of a discrete random variable with possible values {x1, x2, …, xn} and probability density function P(X) is :
The value of b gives the units of entropy. The unit for b=10 is :
(1) bits
(2) bann
(3) nats
(4) deca
(A) (1) and (3)
(B) (2) and (3)
(C) (1),(2)and(3)
(D) All are correct.
Answer: (D)
Explanation: bits is units of entropy for b = 2
so (1) is incorrect and correct option is (B) .
