the value of the function here okay now when we work this out just log of the product is sum of the logs then we see here that this is looks like approximation of integrals so we say okay it's almost the same as integral and we get is here is what is called the differential entropy and then this is some factor that ties into the discretization level so it seems can actually use the differential entropy if we have a functional representation of our of our distribution and we can compute the integral for it we can
