| Oct 21, 2021 at 21:28 | comment | added | d_b | Personally, I avoid describing entropy in terms of "order" or "disorder" for this very reason: in general these terms are not well-defined and don't have any quantitative meaning. We can quantify "order" and "disorder" in some cases, but not in any universal way, whereas the idea of entropy is universally applicable. | |

| Oct 21, 2021 at 17:37 | comment | added | Billy | @PaulT. Magically, I have that question in my reading list. But that question doesn't deal with my question. I had read Joseph answer lot of times it wasn't understandable for me first moment. But I later understood. But I believe there's something else that i am missing something in that answer. And another thing is that, that OP had some idea of order and disorder while I don't have. So it is related question but not same or duplicate | |
