Maximum Entropy in Information Theory And Coding Formulas

The Maximum entropy is defined as states that the probability distribution which best represents the current state of knowledge about a system is the one with largest entropy. And is denoted by H[S]_max. Maximum Entropy is usually measured using the Bit for Data Storage. Note that the value of Maximum Entropy is always negative.
