  "abstract": "Using a notion on the excess entropy of glass with respect to the counterpart crystal, we introduce a simple dimensionless order parameter $\\xi$, which changes from $\\xi \\rightarrow 0$ to $\\xi \\rightarrow 1$. The former case corresponds to a strongly disordered liquid-like structure while the latter situation describes a highly ordered crystal-like glass. This approach is applied to 13 metallic and 2 tellurite glasses. We found that $\\xi$ is strongly sensitive to structural state and/or chemical composition. It can be also used for a comparison of the order in glasses belonging to different classes and appear to represent a new way of structural analysis.",
