And then we're going to turn to the question of efficiency. How do we measure efficiency of algorithms? Which is going to be a really important thing that we want to deal with, and we'll start it today, it's undoubtedly going to take us a couple more lectures to finish it off.

然后我们会回头继续讨论效率问题,我们如何计算算法的效率？,我们处理这些问题的时候,最重要的事情是什么？,我们今天要去讨论这个问题，毫无疑问我们要用,挺多节课来学习这个。

I mean, you grew up in an age when computers were blazingly fast, and have tons of memory, so why in the world do you care about efficiency?

我的意思是你们是伴随着,计算机快速发展成长的，计算机都有这么大的内存,那还在乎效率干嘛呢？

We can figure out the efficiency.

可以计算出效率。

But a point I'm trying to make is, it sounds like anymore computers have gotten so blazingly fast, why should you worry about it?

但是这里我要讲的一点是，在任何一台计算机,都能这么快的运算的情况下，我们还管效率这个问题干嘛呢？

So we're not going to turn you into an expert on computational efficiency.

我们并不是要把你训练成,一个计算效率专家。
