      This is a good question! The answer is, unfortunately, uncomputable – or so we think. But if you manage to find a more satisfying answer, you'll have solved one of the more beguiling problems of the last century, which is the basis for most of modern Information Theory. You can learn more about it here: https://homepages.cwi.nl/~paulv/kolmogorov.html
