Said a different way, in the case of the straight-line programs, how long would it take to run a program?

换种说法，在直线式程序里面，运行一个程序要多长时间？

This is boring. In fact, you can do some nice things to prove what is the class of functions you can compute with straight-line programs, and what you'd see if you did that is, it's not particularly interesting.

这很无聊，实际上，你可以通过做一些很有趣的事情,来证明你可以通过直线程序,来做很多功能，但是你也看到我们之前讲过的了，这不太有趣。

So here we have energy increasing on the y-axis, and you see this straight line at the bottom here is lower down on the graph, and that's the energy of a bound electron, so that's going to be a low stable energy.

这里我们看到能量沿着y轴增加，而且在这张图片上,这条直线在底部是降低的，那是一个束缚电子的能量，所以那是一个低稳态能量。

That's a choice, and that choice turns out to be very interesting and really important, because if you connect these two points together, you get a straight line that has to intercept the x-axis at some point.

在这一选择下,我们会发现一件非常有趣，而且极其重要的事,当你把这两点用直线连接起来，你会发现这条直线,将与x轴在某点相交。

But literally all I can do at this stage is write what we would call a straight-line program, that is, a program in which we execute in which we execute the sequence of instructions one by one.

但是字面上来说,我们现在学到的,都是所谓的直线程序，也就是，一个接一个的执行,一系列的,指令的程序。
