VH calculation: here we see an oversimplified DNA sequence alignment. The red arrow points to the residue (site) 3, but all residues are calculated: a) S1,S2 … to S8 are aligned sequences versus DNA positions (residues); b) nucleotide frequency distribution per residue; c) nucleotide relative frequency distribution per residue; d) vertical entropic spectrum; e) entropy per residue; and f) calculation of entropy for residue 3 or H[3]
