Quote:I computed the single character entropy of all word-initial characters by simply counting the word-initial characters, and computing their frequency distribution.
But you compute frequencies across all the text, or across subsets of first/last letters only?
In the following example:
Code:
this is a test messagethe frequency of 't', for the word-initial, would be 2 or 3?
EDIT: Ah, OK, surely the former. Otherwise it would not make sense. I wonder what would be the respective result for second letters.
