It's gonna be around well after we're gone and ancient civilizations, alien civilizations we'll know Pascal's triangle.
在我们和古代文明消失之后,它还会继续存在,外星文明我们就会知道帕斯卡三角形。

Exactly, there's even a continuum of Pascal's triangles, between zero and one there's this a continuum of numbers that you could put in for powers.
- 没错,甚至还有帕斯卡三角形的连续体,在零和一之间有一系列数字,你可以用它们来表示幂。

That makes me think that we could actually go into Pascal's triangle blow it up and add fractions in between the rows that we're familiar with.
- 这让我认为我们实际上可以进入帕斯卡三角形,把它炸毁,并在我们熟悉的行之间添加分数。

If you look at the numbers in these equations the coefficients on X and X squared and so on, well, they're actually just the numbers in Pascal's triangle.
如果你看一下这些方程中的数字,X 的系数和 X 的平方等等,嗯,它们实际上只是帕斯卡三角形中的数字。

So Newton is convinced the binomial theorem works even for negative values of N, which means there's more to Pascal's triangle above the zeroeth you could add a zero and a one that add to make that first one.
因此,牛顿确信二项式定理即使适用于 N 的负值,这意味着帕斯卡三角形中除了零之外还有更多内容,您可以添加一个零和一个一,将它们相加得到第一个。
In mathematics, Pascal's triangle is a triangular array of the binomial coefficients. In the Western world, it is named after French mathematician Blaise Pascal, although other mathematicians studied it centuries before him in India, Persia (Iran), China, Germany, and Italy.
