列表是一系列整数,要注意的这里的优势能够,用有限的空间来表示整数,例如，如果我想要操作。

We transition to actually real world applications later on like a compression-- how do you take a huge amount of data ; and actually whittle it down into something more manageable; something that uses less of your disk space.

然后我们会讲生活中的应用程序,比方说压缩文件——,把大量的数据分解使其更易管理;,并占用尽量少的磁盘空间。
