The reason I'm showing you this is it that this is a gain, a common trade off in computer science.

我向你们说明这个,是因为是这个计算机科学中。

Okay, not to dwell too much on math because you can very quickly bore someone in computer science by dwelling too much on math but it's useful even for logical constructs as we'll see with loops.

不要过于纠结于这些数学问题了,在计算机领域，你会很讨厌那些,在这上面钻牛角尖的人，但是对于那些,像循环这样的逻辑结构又是很有用的。

Okay, so while not equal to, so bang equals, exclamation point equals is computer science syntax for saying not equal to, 0 while not equal to 2 which it is not, it is equal to 0.

好的，尽管不等于不是相等的反写,但惊叹号在计算机科学的语法是不等于的意思，尽管不等于2，但它是等于。

But whatever your reason for being here this is in fact our introduction to Computer Science; and contrary to what you might have heard or seen or perceived in high school, odds are computer science is not quite what you imagined it to be.

但是不管你们来这儿的原因是什么,这门课介绍的都是计算机科学,可能与你们平时听到的看到的,或者在高中时所想象的恰好相反,计算机技术的优势完全不是你想象的那样。

And that's when things really get interesting and so this just hints at the types of thinking that one can derive from the field of computer science and apply either to the field itself of computer science, or whatever domain it is that you are here too study.

这样就开始有意思起来了,这仅仅是我们从计算机科学领域,获得的一些思维方式上的启示,这种思维方式不仅适用于计算机科学本身，也同样可以应用在其他的学习领域。

Now, unlike high school math or in algebra Z where you call things X and Y and Z, in programming, in computer science, you're actually dealing with humans where it's useful to have a variable name that's more descriptive than X and Y and Z.

不像高中数学或者代数中,称为X和Y和，在程序设计和计算机科学里，你实际上是在和人打交道,在这里有个描述性比xyz更强的,变量名称是很重要的。
