and we like log algorithms, because they're really fast. A typical characteristic of a log algorithm is a pro-- or sorry, an algorithm where it reduces the size of the problem by a constant factor.

并且我们也很喜欢对数算法,因为它很快,对数算法的典型特性是高速，哦，抱歉，是他能以常数因子的速度,降低问题的大小，很明显。

In addition to that, we have that epsilon nought value, remember that's the permittivity constant in a vacuum, and basically that is what we use as a conversion factor to get from units. We don't want namely coulombs to units, we want that will allow us to cancel out in this equation.

这是电子的电荷，此外，我们有epsilon零，记住这是真空的介电常数，这是我们用来转换单位的转换常数,我们不想用库伦单位，我们希望这个可以在方程中约去它。

n It takes discrete values, multiples of some integer n, and the multiplication factor is the ratio of the Planck constant divided by 2 pi where n takes one, two, three and so on.

这些离散的值乘以整数，乘积因子,是普朗克常数除以2π,其中n可以取1，2，3，等等。
