Ted, math is the secret to understanding the world.
I want to talk about understanding and the essence of understanding. What is understanding? Because we are all pursuing understanding. We want to know everything in the world. I think understanding is a kind of ability, the ability to change the inherent point of view. If we lack it, it means we lack understanding. This is my conclusion. I want to concentrate on math.

? Many people think that mathematics is addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, fractions, percentages, algebra, geometry and so on. But today, I also want to talk about the essence of mathematics. In my opinion, mathematics is related to patterns.

First of all, the key to mathematics is to find patterns. Mode here refers to some kind of connection, structure, law or rule, which controls what we see. Secondly, I think mathematics is a language used to describe various patterns. If there is no ready-made language, you need to create one. This is especially important in mathematics. At the same time, mathematics also needs to make assumptions and verify in many ways to see what the result is. Finally, math can be used to do cool things and help us accomplish many things.

If you want to wear a tie, there are many styles. Each kind has a name, so bow ties also include mathematics-Oriental knot, four-handed knot and half windsor knot.

? This is a math book about tying shoelaces. College level, because there are many ways to tie your shoelaces.

I am a teacher and an orator. I can use this to teach. Because I use metaphor and analogy to tell students a story in different ways, and tell the same thing from different angles, so that they can really understand. Because you have to sum up what you have seen and heard, it will be easier for you if I give you another angle. Let's give another example.

? I'm using a metaphor. Let's make an analogy from another angle. Tell the same story from different angles. I'm narrating. I've already made several narratives. I think all this makes understanding possible. I think this is the key to understanding things. I am convinced of this. So, about changing your perspective-this is very important for human beings.

? Let's look at the earth. Let's zoom in to the ocean and see the ocean. We can zoom in on anything. We can look at the waves, or the beach, or we can look at the sea from another angle. Every time we change our perspective, we can learn more about the ocean. If we go to the seaside, we can smell the sea water, right? You can hear the sound of waves and taste the salty taste in the wind. These are all different angles. And this angle is the best!

We went into the water and observed from the inside. Guess what? This is absolutely important for both mathematics and computer science. If you can observe a structure from the inside, then you can really understand it and know its essence.

So, when we walked all the way to the sea, we used our imagination. I think this is a further step, which is an inevitable need to change the angle.

We can play a game, imagine you are sitting there, and then you are on it at the same time. You can look at yourself from the outside It sounds strange that you are changing your angle. You are using your imagination, and you are looking at yourself from the outside. This requires imagination, and mathematics and computer science are the most imaginative art forms. There is another way to change the angle, called * * * love. When I see the world from your point of view, I have a love with you. If I can really understand the world in your eyes, let's fall in love. It takes imagination. This is how we gain understanding. And this method has flooded the fields of mathematics and computer science. * * * Emotion has a deep connection with these sciences.

? Therefore, my conclusion is that a deep understanding of one thing is closely related to the ability to change angles. So my advice is: try another angle. You can learn math, which is a good way to exercise your brain. Change the angle and make your thinking more flexible. It can make you accept and understand new things easily. Allow me to use the metaphor again: Let quiet inside!
