I've got to do another pass. Huh. Sounds like a linear number of times I've got to do- oh fudge knuckle.

冒到最后去，还得再做冒泡,呵，听起来我要做线性次的时间-,哦，胡说八道。

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。

And this is what they had expected that there would be no relationship, but instead here they saw that there was a linear relationship not to the intensity and the kinetic energy of the electrons, but to the intensity and the number of electrons.

另外一个实验,他们预期这两者没有关系,但他们看到的不是,光强和电子动能的,线性关系，而是光强,和电子数的线性关系。

But scaling of compute resources is linear with the number of endpoints, since in the case of the hidden location file, each one brings its own resources to the party.

For most major league seasons when running a statistical technique called simple linear regression, the number of wins is statistically correlated with team payroll.

However this vision of inescapable and linear decline leaves out a number of important details that, at an absolute minimum, complicate the picture.
