7 years ago 原文翻譯： 在我後面大家可以看到 一個很漂亮的模式， 這個模式其實只要 用一種特別的方式畫圓就會出現。 所以我對數學的簡單定義， 我每天都在用的， 就是： 第一，數學就是找出模式。 我說的模式是指一種關聯、 一種結構，有某種規律性， 某些規則，掌控我們所見。 第二， 我認為它以一種語言表達這些模式。 如果找不到我們就自己編新語言。 而在數學，這非常必要。 這也跟你做了假設， 然後玩一下假設 來看看會發生什麼事有關。 我們等一下就會這麼做。 最後，這還跟做出很酷的東西有關。 數學能讓我們做很多事。
Behind me, you see a beautiful pattern, and this pattern actually emerges just from drawing circles in a very particular way. So my day-to-day definition of mathematics that I use every day is the following: First of all, it's about finding patterns. And by "pattern," I mean a connection, a structure, some regularity, some rules that govern what we see. Second of all, I think it is about representing these patterns with a language. We make up language if we don't have it, and in mathematics, this is essential. It's also about making assumptions and playing around with these assumptions and just seeing what happens. We're going to do that very soon. And finally, it's about doing cool stuff. Mathematics enables us to do so many things.

Behind me, you see a beautiful pattern, and this pattern actually emerges just from drawing circles in a very particular way. 在我後面，你可以看到美麗的模式，這個模式確實是用特別的方法畫出的圓而形成的。
So my day-to-day definition of mathematics that I use every day is the following: First of all, it's about finding patterns. 所以我對數學的日常定義就是：首先，找到模式。
And by "pattern," I mean (a connection, a structure, some regularity, some rules that govern) what we see. 這個「模式」，指的是我們看到的關係、結構、一些規則、一些管理的規則。
Second of all, I think it is about representing these patterns with a language. 接著，我把這些模式用語言來表示。
We make up language if we don't have it, and in mathematics, this is essential. 我們 ? 語言 如果我們不需要他，然而在數學是必要的。
It's also about making assumptions and playing around with these assumptions and just seeing what happens. 要先建立假設，接著用這些假設來推導，最後看會發生什麼事。
We're going to do that very soon. And finally, it's about doing cool stuff. Mathematics enables us to do so many things. 我們即將會做這些。最後，這是個很酷的東西。數學讓我們能夠做很多事。
