So you know from algebra I can't actually solve this. There may be multiple solutions to this. What would I have to do to change my code? And the answer is fortunately not a lot.

我解不出来方程,可能会有多组答案,我需要怎样修改我的代码呢？,很幸运的,答案是不用修改很多。

Now you might say, wait a minute. Thing's ordered, if I stop part way through and I throw away half the list, doesn't that help me? And the answer is yes, but it doesn't change the complexity.

如果我在半路上停下来,然后不去遍历剩下的数组了,这会有帮助么？答案是有帮助，但这没法改变算法的复杂度，因为我们之前怎么说来着？
