Is entropy quantized?

[pioneer]

Here is a quantum theory question; is entropy quantized?

 

In all due respect to math, math is only as good as the theory it supports. Math is a form of impartial logic. However, based on one's premises even good honest math logic can draw wrong conclusions if the conceptual premises are not exactly real or true. For example, if a unicorn and snail had a race who would win? The unicorn has the long legs of a horse, therefore my calculations can show that the unicorn would win. My calculations say the snail, since unicorns do not exist.

 

Relative to quantum effects, what causes these? If we don't know the answer to that basic answer, all we are doing is correlating the output from a black box. This can be useful and can be used to predict results. However, when we finally open this black box, is it possible the premises will change?

 

Here is another interesting question, if assume the quantum nature of reality, does this mean that probability is never a continuous curve?

It's a different question to ask if it can be quantized as opposed to must be quantized. The values it depends on, classically — heat and temperature — are not. But in terms of number of states available to it, the answer is yes.
