Popis: We use ideas of symbolic dynamics to define the topological entropy h ( S ) for a piecewise continuous piecewise monotone interval map S by counting the n-addresses of S with respect to a suitable system of pairwise disjoint open intervals. It turns out that this definition yields the same value as Bowen's definition using ( n , e ) -separated and ( n , e ) -spanning sets.
