And that's just a way of reminding you that we want to think carefully, but what are the things we're trying to measure when we talk about complexity here? It's both the size of the thing and how often are we going to use it? And there are some trade offs, but I still haven't said how I'm going to get an n log n sorting algorithm, and that's what I want to do today.

这只是在提醒你们我们要仔细的思考问题,但是当我们在讨论复杂性的时候,我们到底要衡量哪些东西？,是列表的大小和对其进行查找的频率吗？,这里面临一些取舍,但是我还没有说明,怎样得到一个n，log，n复杂度的排序算法,并且这是我今天想要讲的内容。

You might say, why? Well it turns out there's some trade-offs to it. It has some advantages in terms of power of storing things, it has some disadvantages, primarily in terms of access time.

那可能是某种意义上的权衡,对存储而言，这有优势,但访问的效率上就变成劣势了,幸运的是，python或者。
