The power of linearity is F=k1+k2 if I come across f of x, y, z equals k1 plus k2, if it is a linear equation, I don't have to go and solve it all over again.

线性的威力是,一个方程，如果它是个线性方程，那么我就不用再去解他了。

Imagine I have a little lamp, a little goose- one of those little gooseneck lamps, I'd put it on the table here, I'd put the height about a f-- about a foot off the table. And if I was really good, - I could hit, or time it so that when I hurt- yeah, try again. When I turn this on switch on in the lamp, at exactly the same time, I'm going to hit a key on my computer and start it running.

想象下我有一个那种小雁颈台灯-,我把它放在桌子上，大概离桌子，有一英尺那么高吧,这样挺好的，我可以打开-,或者关闭这灯,并在这同时，我可以让我电脑,开始运行。

If we did that, if we moved f minus 32 over to the left, that would give me a floating point answer because f is a float.

如果你那样做，如果我们把，放前面，那将会给我们一个浮点数答案,因为f是浮点数。
