Orders of magnitude (data) An order of magnitude is usually a factor of ten. Thus, four orders of magnitude is a factor of 10,000 or 104. This article presents a list of multiples, sorted by orders of magnitude, for units of information measured in bits and bytes. The byt ...

information entropy In information theory, the entropy of a random variable is the average level of "information", "surprise", or "uncertainty" inherent to the variable's possible outcomes. Given a discrete random variable X, which takes values in the alphabet \ ...
