Having done that, it goes back up and picks the second sub-list, which came from there. It's a down to base case, merges it.

就是从那里得来的,完成这些后,回到上一步。

Need to get the base in. Second thing I want to do, I need to get the height, so I'm going to input a value for the height, also as a float, a floating point.

也就是输入底的值，第二件我想要做的，事情就是得到三角形的高,因此我会输入一个值作为三角形的高，同样也是一个浮点数。

The second question I want to ask is what's the base case? When do I get down to a problem that's small enough that it's basically trivial to solve? Here it was lists of size one. I could have stopped at lists of size two right. That's an easy comparison.

第二个问题是什么是基础条件？,我要将问题分解到何时才使得问题,小到可以解决的基本问题？,这里是当列表的长度为1有时候,我也可以在长度为2的时候停止分解,那是一个非常简单的对比。
