Small pieces move randomly till they meet and link
permanently by molecular forces. The irreversibility of linking is the
mechanism by which "order is born from disorder". I am using these strong
words without any evidence that the entropy of a clustered pattern is
lower than the entropy of a really random distribution for a given number
of particles. Any idea how to calculate the entropy of a pattern?
