You seem to be asking a lot of questions on Information Theory. Please can I just recommend some books I've found very helpful rather than try to regurgitate what they say:
(in order of historical importance)
- "Concepts in Statistical Mechanics" - Arthur Hobson
- "The Mathematical Theory of Communication" - Claude E. Shannon & Warren Weaver
- "The Uncertain Reasoner's Companion" - J. B. Paris
- "Elements of Information Theory" - Thomas M. Cover & Joy A. Thomas
- "Information Theory" - Robert B. Ash
