Eli5: what is entropy?
In: 1
Imagine you have a bunch of toys in a big toy box. If you keep all the toys in order and neatly stacked, the toy box looks very organized and clean. But if you throw all the toys in the box without sorting them, the toy box looks messy and disorganized.
Entropy is like how messy or disorganized the toy box is. If the toys are all stacked neatly, the entropy is low. But if the toys are all mixed up and disorganized, the entropy is high.
