Complexity denotes
a state of affairs that one can easily appreciate when confronted with it;
however, is rather difficult to define it quantitatively. In between the two
special instances of perfect order and complete randomness, a wide range of
possible degrees of physical structure exists. The statistical
complexity captures the degree of correlational structures, as Shannon’s
entropy “captures” randomness. |
