I have it down that there might be an infinite number of possible values for the random variable x.

对于这个随机变量X,可能的取值个数是无限的

Yeah. Suppose I choose it right down there I guess 0. Well, the tangent there will not even have an x intercept. So I'm really going to be dead in the water.

好，如果我选猜想数为0，好吧,这个点的切线甚至和x轴都没交点,所以在这儿这一原则,真的不起作用了。

For example, suppose you use vertical motion and you use y instead of x; and a would be g or -g; that's a particle falling down under the affect of gravity.

例如,假设在竖直运动中,你用 y 来代替 x,那么 a 就是 g 或者 -g,这就是一个受重力作用下落的质点

Well, break it down into pieces. Suppose x is positive. Does it terminate? Sure. All right?

好，分开来讨论，假设x是整数,程序会终结么？肯定会的对不对？

All right, we're-- well actually, I should say that better, we first check to see, is x 0 greater than or equal to zero, if it's not, then we come down here and we print something out, otherwise we run through a little loop to get the answer, and then we check it and we spit something out.

然后我们运行一个小循环,好了，我们现在来看看,如果x≥0或者x＜,我们看这儿,我们会输出一些内容,或者我们运行一个小循环来获取答案,然后我们检验一下，然后得到结果。
