High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Hartley function is a measure of uncertainty, introduced by Ralph Hartley in 1928. If we pick a sample from a finite set A uniformly at random, the information revealed after we know the outcome is given by the Hartley function. If the base of the logarithm is 2, then the uncertainty is measured in bits. If it is the natural logarithm, then the unit is nats. (Hartley himself used a base-ten logarithm, and this unit of information is sometimes called the hartley in his honor.) It is also known as the Hartley entropy.
