In this series, we learn some of the basic tenets of Information theory (more specifically, Information Entropy) and how these concepts can be used in the Study of Mathematical Card Magic.
A fundamental concept in the study of Information theory is the “Surprisal” of
a random event—also called its “Self-Information.” The Surprisal of an event measures the
amount of information gained when the event occurs. It also measures the “surprise”
associated with the occurrence of that event.
Consequently, for many (if not all) card effects that have ever been invented, each one has an associated level of "surprise" as measured by its "Surprisal value"---expressed in terms of (Shannon) bits.

To Dr. Chris Terman at MIT for getting me started on writing my section on Information theory.
