Second thing we saw is, that using this as a computation, I can return multiple values.

我们看到的第二件事是把它用作计算,我可以返回多个值。

We saw some quadratic algorithms, typically those are things with multiple nested loops, or iterative or recursive calls, where you're doing, say, a linear amount of time but you're doing it a linear number of times and so it becomes quadratic, and you'll see other polynomial kinds of algorithms.

我们看过一些平方算法，他们一般进行了多次嵌套循环,或者递归迭代调用，对一个线性操作调用线性次,这样就变成平方次了,以后你们能看到,一些多项式算法。

Sometimes the functions -- sometimes a function can be used on multiple data types, plus, for example, we saw could add strings, or could add ints, but each one of those data types has associated with it a set of functions that are geared to handling them.

比如说，我们可以对string类型,进行add操作,也可以对int类型进行这个操作，但是这些数据类型中的每一种，都与适合于操作它们的,方法集相关联,我们想对我们创建的数据,类型做同样的事情。
