參數(shù)英語-參數(shù)英語怎么說讀
(圖片來源網(wǎng)絡,侵刪)

  假如有人問參數(shù)英語我訂閱號中參數(shù)英語的戰(zhàn)斗號,我一定不假思索地想到參數(shù)英語

  圖靈訪談

  

  

  我知道,

  “圖靈訪談”的粉絲們多是品味極高的洋氣人兒。

  所以緊接樓上中文版訪談,這里給出參數(shù)英語了英文版!

  練好了中英雙語,來圖靈翻譯圖書吧~

  訪談嘉賓:

  Adit Bhargava,軟件工程師,兼具計算機科學和美術(shù)方面的教育背景,在adit.io撰寫編程方面的博客。

  

  因為愛好,Adit踏入了編程殿堂。visual Basic 6 for Dummies教會了他很多基礎知識,但始終對算法沒搞明白。直到遇到一位優(yōu)秀的算法教授后,他才認識到這些概念是多么地簡單且優(yōu)雅。

  幾年前,他開始在adit.io上撰寫圖解式博文,介紹函數(shù)式編程、Git、機器學習和并發(fā)。圖解式寫作風趣幽默、化繁為簡、清晰明確,受到大量讀者的喜愛。

  訪談中,我們主要聊了些:

為什么要寫這樣一本萌萌的算法入門書

Adit神秘的算法導師

編程學習低齡化

  Why would you like to write such an introductory book, which is full of fascinating scenarios and cute illustrations drawn by hand?

  I usually take notes for myself when I learn something, because it helps me learn. For example here are the notes I'm taking as I read "A Book Of Abstract Algebra" (attached). So this was a technique I had used in the past, and I thought others might find it useful also. So I wrote this blog post. People liked it and it made me think that a book with the same style would probably do pretty well too.

  Let's enjoy Adit's explanation of Monad in pictures!

學習 Monad的渠道:

取得計算機科學專業(yè)的博士學位。

壓根兒不學。這里根本用不到那些條條框框!

  Functor 將一個普通函數(shù)應用到被封裝的值上:

  

  Applicative 將一個封裝的函數(shù)應用到封裝的值上:

  

  Monad 將一個 “接受普通值并回傳一個被封裝值” 的函數(shù)應用到一個被封裝的值上,這一任務由函數(shù) >>=(讀作 bind)完成。聽起來似乎很拗口,讓我們來看個例子吧,還是熟悉的 Maybe:

  

  假設 half是只對偶數(shù)感興趣的函數(shù):

  half x = if even x then Just (x `div` 2) else Nothing

  

  如果扔給 half一個封裝的值會怎樣?

  

  這時,我們需要用 >>=把被封裝的值擠到 half中。猜猜>>=的照片:

  

  再看看它的效果:

  > Just 3 >>= half Nothing > Just 4 >>= half Just 2 > Nothing >>= half Nothing

  這其中究竟發(fā)生了什么?Monad 是另一種類型類,這是它定義的一部分:

  class Monad m where (>>=) :: m a -> (a -> m b) -> m b

  下圖展示了 >>=各個參數(shù)的意義:

  

  下面的定義讓 Maybe成了 Monad:

  instance Monad Maybe where Nothing >>= func = Nothing Just val >>= func = func val

  來看看執(zhí)行 Just 3時發(fā)生了什么:

  

  如果傳入 Nothing就更容易了:

  

  你還可以把這些調(diào)用過程連起來,比如執(zhí)行 Just 20 >>= half >>= half >>= half會得到 Nothing:

  

  

  太棒啦!

  From the book cover, I thought it might be full of hand-drawn illustrations about mice. It seems not, for there’re other images like sheep, birds, rabbits, diagrams. Why would you put that picture in front of the book?

  I wish I had a good answer for you! The people at Manning chose the picture on the cover. Manning was generally good about giving me a lot of control over the book, but for the cover, they really fell in love with this image and chose to use it.

  A whole bunch of readers are really curious about your algorithmic teacher mentioned in author's introduction part who made tough concepts become simple but elegant. Could you share some of his/her teaching methods?

  Sure! Her most effective teaching method was stepping through an algorithm line by line. When something is hard, it is easier skip over it. But in order to learn, it is important to slow down at the hard parts. So for each algorithm she taught, she would slow down and go through the code line by line and explain what each line did. I tried to do the same thing in my book. In the section on recursion, for example, I walk through each line and show how the stack changes. I think having that level of detail is really important.

  What's your favorite algorithm? Why does it give you such a deep impression?

  I've mentioned how much I love graph algorithms a few times in the book. Graphs are a really amazing structure that show up absolutely everywhere. I feel like I'm able to solve so many problems just using graph algorithms. I recently went to lunch with a friend and someone at the lunch said "I bet I can teach you Category Theory in 15 minutes". I didn't know anything about Category Theory, but I knew graphs and abstract algebra, so it actually took him less than five minutes to explain Category Theory to me. At work, I've been able to automate some tedious tasks, all because I know how topological sort and breadth-first search work.

  Sometimes, short operational time does not necessarily mean good performances. Except time, are there any other dimensions to judge algorithm?

  Yes! I think ease of use is a pretty important metric. For example, there are plenty of machine learning techniques more advanced than KNN, but if you are just starting out with a problem, you might want to start with KNN even if you are a machine learning expert. If an algorithm is easy to think about, there are fewer places for bugs to hide. Once you start getting into more complicated algorithms like neural networks, if you run into a bug, it will take more time to figure out the cause because there are so many more moving parts, so more places for the bug to hide. When picking an algorithm and considering performance time, it is important to think about the performance of the programmer also! Easy to understand code is more maintainable and more likely to be bug-free.

  There are actually a few teenagers who are reading your book. What do you think of learning algorithm from very early ages, like primary school ages or even earlier?

  I think that makes a lot of sense. Programming is a way to be creative, just like painting or music. I learned programming pretty early and made video games and animations. The earlier you learn, the sooner you can work on your own projects!

  Will you keep this up with a "Grokking" series covering other CS/Dev topics? Because we all love it.

  I hope so! I need to think hard about what else I can write about :)
