So when you operate on the wave function, what you end up with is getting the binding energy of the electron, and the wave function back out.

所以当你将它作用于波函数时，你得到的是电子的结合能,和后面的波函数。

You try to design actually I'm going to come back to that in a second. It's like you're trying to use a hash function that spread things out pretty evenly. But the places you store into in those lists may have to themselves have a small list in there, and when you go to check something, you may have to do a linear search through the elements in that list.

你尝试着去设计,实际上过会儿我会回头讲解这个问题,类似于你需要用一个哈希函数,非常平均的将物体分发出去,但是在列表中你数据,映射到的地方可能会有自己的一小段列表，当你回头查找数据的时候,你可能需要在那一小段列表中做线性查找。

In terms of function they're very important because this stem cell which is produced goes back into the population of stem cells and is able to repeat this process to form new committed progenitor cells and to form new stem cells.

但就功能而言这些干细胞则至关重要,因为这类分裂产生的子细胞,依然是干细胞,可以再次重复上述步骤,生成新的定向祖细胞,和新的干细胞
