Entropy is a measure of how free a system of movement is. If there is a dance in which the dancer may occupy only one state then said dance has zero entropy, there are no surprises. As the number of possible states increases so does the entropy, the number of options increases. The mathematical definition is given below.
H is the entropy
i is the index of states
n is the number of states
p is the probability of inhabiting each state
