摘要：
Cheraghchi [IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 65, 2019, 3999-4009] derived expressions for the entropy for some basic discrete distributions. Not all of the expressions provided were in closed form. In this note, we derive closed form expressions for the entropy for more than ten flexible classes of distributions. The correctness of the expressions is checked numerically.
