Right, so the things we want you to take away from this are, get into the habit of using pseudo code when you sit down to start a problem, write out what are the steps.

好，这儿我想大家明白的就是,养成解决问题时先写伪代码的好习惯,把步骤都写出来,我想要告诉你们的是一个好的程序员。

We're going to be counting the number of basic steps it takes to solve the problem.

我们还要去数着,解决问题的的基本步骤有多少。

If I want to try and decide how to tackle a problem in an iterative matter, here the steps I'm going to go through. First thing I'm going to do, is I'm going to choose a variable that's going to count.

但是这就是我对它的观点,如果我试着去以迭代的方式,解决一个问题的话,下面是我应该采取的步骤,第一件要做的事情。

I'm going to let t of b be the number of steps it takes to solve the problem of size b.

我会设立一个t作为,计算指数为b的时候解决问题需要的步骤数。

I'm given an integer that's a perfect square, and I want to write a little piece of code that's going to find the square root of it. All right so I'm cheating a little, I know it's a perfect square, somebody's given it to me, we'll come back in a second to generalizing it, so what would the steps be that I'd use to walk through it?

完美平方数的整数，我想写一段代码来求这个数的平方根,好，我这儿有点儿作弊了,我知道这是一个完美的平方数了,他们给我的，我们后面会讲怎么产生这个数的，那么我想解决这个问题,需要什么步骤呢？

t In the b even case, again I'm going to let t of b be the number of steps I want to go through.

如果b为偶数，那么我还是要用,来代表解决这个问题需要的步骤数。
