The Asymptotic Equipartition Property (AEP) is a fundamental concept in information theory that describes the behavior of large sequences of random variables. It essentially states that for a sufficiently large number of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables, the joint distribution of those variables becomes concentrated around a typical set of outcomes, which have roughly the same probability. Formally, if \\(X_1, X_2, \\ldots, X_n\\) are i.
