Shannon and Hartley
The difference between Hartley and Shannon is that the Hartley measures the amount of information needed to remove the uncertainty but Shannon measures the average amount of information needed to remove uncertainty. To measure information using Hartley, you have to use the Hartley function which is: H(A)=log2|A|. A equals the number of choices. Shannon's Entropy uses the probability of occurrence and uses a different equations.
