Hey, das ist ja sogar mehr Info als ich haben wollte ;-) Aber jetzt hab ichs
verstanden, Dankeschön!
Hallo Fabian
Die Uebersetzung lautet "Entropie".
Hier Infos zu deinem Problem:

Hier Infos zur Entropie:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropie_%28Informationstheorie%29
Solltest du danach noch Fragen haben, wende dich an einen
naturwissenschaftlichen Lehrer deines Vertrauens [Chemie|Physik|
Mathematik] der sollte das Konzept der Entropie kennen und es dir
erklaeren koennen. Er wird dann wohl ehere vom 2. Hauptsatz der
Thermodynamik her argumentieren. Aber so ein bisschen
Interdiszplinaritaet schadet sicher nicht ;-)

I have just disabled apop and everything works fine.. Thank you! But
honestly I don't really understand why it works now. What is meant by an
entropy? I didn't find a suitable translation in my dictionaries :-)
