[edit] Low and high entropy

I just copied this article from Planet math, so am not to clear on its interpretation. Very curiously, it seems to be saying that ergodic systems have a very low entropy (!), while only dissipative systems would have a high entropy. Curious. linas 14:19, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Never mind, I misread one of the lines. None-the-less, some examples would be good. linas 14:31, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

The "metric" d_n is not well-defined because f is not supposed to be injective.
