The title of the section should just read Entropy.
Also, the 'Bayseian Block' method shouldn't be encouraged here. First, it takes a significant time to compute, and secondly, it doesn't match well with an entropy calculator because it histograms the data in a way that increases the entropy by masking out some of the structure in a histogram. It's faster and more understandable to use a simple-spaced histogram.
