Hi,
I mean this : "Shannon entropy allows to estimate the average minimum number of bits needed to encode a string of symbols based on the alphabet size and the frequency of the symbols."

see https://www.shannonentropy.netmark.pl/

You would certainly be interested to know the number for the sample you wish to compress.
