@stinodego Theoretically backwards-incompatible, but I consider it a bug that the
Series
method did something different than theExpr
method. However, in any sensible use-case ofSeries.entropy
the probabilities would have already summed to 1, meaning that turning on normalize shouldn't actually change behavior for users.
