Applications of information theory are there in ZIP files (Data compression), MP3 and channel coding, etc. Information theory has applications in artificial intelligence, adaptive systems, informatics, machine learning, complex systems and complexity science. In data encoding and error correction mechanism, information theory is used. In information theory quantities of information are entropy, random variable information and mutual information, etc. Coding theory is the major application of information theory. Coding theory is divided into source coding and channel coding.
