Temperature per bit


According to Shannon:
information entropy = 1 / ln(2) bits.

According to thermodynamic:
physical entropy  = 1.38 x 10^-23 joules per degree K.

So about 1 x 10^23 bits equals one joule per degree K.

According to Potter's 7th law,
one elemental quantum event = one bit,
therefore there are about 10^23 quantum events per joule per degree K.

Note that complex (Non-elemental event) events
are composed of an aggregate of quantum, elemental events (Bits).

It is interesting to note,
that energy has a tangent component which introduces real number
into the quantity of energy, and that an analog quantity
cannot be equated directly to a digital property (Like bits),
without introducing an "uncertainty".

It may be that (energy / temperature) is a digital (Quantum) property.
