What you're much better at doing is saying how do I take the problem I've got and map it into a class of algorithms about which I know and use the efficiencies of those to try and figure out how to make it work.

当你碰到问题的时候,更好的方法是把遇到的问题映射,到已经设计好的算法中去,并用这些算法来提高效率,来保证问题得到解决。

But I want you to take away from this how we reason about the complexity of these algorithms. And I'll remind you, we said we're going to mostly talk about time.

但是我想你们理解我们,是怎么推出这些问题的复杂度的,提醒大家，我说过了我们主要讨论时间问题。

Let me show you one more class, though about-- sorry, let me show you two more classes of algorithms. Let's look at the next one g- and there's a bug in your handout, it should be g of n and m, I apologize for that, I changed it partway through and didn't catch it.

请大家看，额,在你们的课堂材料中有个错误,应该是g，很抱歉-,我改了一部分这个错误但是没看到这里的，好，这儿的增长率，有人想猜猜么？
