Entropy for the entire protein

Issue #523 resolved
Former user created an issue

I am using the entropy function of this Bio3D package. The output of this function has the H.norm value for the entropy of each position. I am wondering how I can get the entropy value for the entire protein. Shall I regard H.norm as the probability in this formula, -∑ pi log(pi)?

Thanks very much!!

    If mimicking thermodynamic entropy, you could simply sum up position-specific entropy to get the total. But, I am not sure it is proper as I never done such calculations. Do others have any idea?
