Question
A1
How likely is it to deviate from the maximum
entropy state? This simple calculation should give
you an idea. If a point is chosen at random in an
M-dimensional unit cube, what is the probability
of falling inside the cube with the side a =
0.9999999999? Compare M = 3 and M = 10^20.
(Note: For M = 10^20, a cube of side
a=0.9999999999 is not equivalent to a cube of
side a=1).
