entropy

• entropy(k: number, lambda: number): number

• Returns the differential entropy of a Weibull distribution.

  Notes

  • If k <= 0 or lambda <= 0, the function returns NaN.

  Parameters

  • k: number

    shape parameter

  • lambda: number

    scale parameter

  Returns number

  Example

  var v = entropy( 1.0, 1.0 );
  // returns 1.0

  Example

  var v = entropy( 4.0, 12.0 );
  // returns ~2.532

  Example

  var v = entropy( 8.0, 2.0 );
  // returns ~0.119

  Example

  var v = entropy( 1.0, -0.1 );
  // returns NaN

  Example

  var v = entropy( -0.1, 1.0 );
  // returns NaN

  Example

  var v = entropy( 2.0, NaN );
  // returns NaN

  Example

  var v = entropy( NaN, 2.0 );
  // returns NaN
