title: 'RenyiExtropy: Entropy and Extropy Measures for Probability Distributions'
version: 0.4.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.RenyiExtropy
abstract: Provides functions to compute Shannon entropy, Renyi entropy, Tsallis entropy,
  and related extropy measures for discrete probability distributions. Includes joint
  and conditional entropy, KL divergence, Jensen-Shannon divergence, cross-entropy,
  normalized entropy, and Renyi extropy (including the conditional and maximum forms).
  All measures use the natural logarithm (nats). Useful for information theory, statistics,
  and machine learning applications.
