estimate-entropy

This repo also contains a daughter tool for estimating the entropy rate of strings in the same way as is done for assessing reference complexity. Useful if you're interested in assessing the complexity of sequence data from any source (or any string at all!).

Enable compilation via:

cmake .. -DMAKE_DAUGHTER=ON

Then proceed with compilation as normal. See ./estimate-entropy --help for usage.
