Interstellar Industrial Age

Wang Zhengyang accompanied Qin Yi to the institute and talked about Chinese operating systems and Chinese programming. His eyebrows were wrinkled into Sichuan characters.

Although Chinese operating system and Chinese programming are an old topic, many seniors have been studying this topic in the past, but we have not made any progress for a long time, you should not be too anxious, carefully clarify the thinking, the method is always more difficult many.

Qin Yi smiled and comforted.

Chinese programming and Chinese operating system are nothing new. Since computers were introduced to our country, some people in our country have studied this Chinese operating system and Chinese programming.

The reason is very simple, because Chinese is our native language, and we use Chinese in our daily life and in our work. Almost everything in the computer field is related to English, and the foundation and framework are based on English. .

This is very unfavorable to the development of our country's computer technology and Internet industry. If we can use Chinese to program and construct Chinese operations, it will be very helpful to the development of our country's computer and Internet industry.

However, the study of Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems can be described as extremely bumpy and extremely difficult.

From the very beginning, just to study a Chinese input method, the country has convened many researchers and scientists to study it carefully.

Because Chinese and English are two completely different languages, the difference between them is too great.

Chinese belongs to the Chinese-Tibetan word order, which is derived from the earliest hieroglyphs; English belongs to the Indo-European word order, consisting of 26 letters derived from the Latin alphabet.

Because of the huge difference between the two languages, when computers and the Internet first spread to our country, it was very slow to input Chinese characters into the computer, and we had to rely on pinyin letters to input Chinese characters.

Later, after the hard research of scientists and researchers, the Wubi input method was invented, and the input speed of Chinese characters soared instantly. Later, as more and more people studied input methods, various intelligent input methods appeared one after another. The problem has been solved very well.

However, there has been no substantial breakthrough in the research on Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems. At present, the mainstream and most widely used programming software in the world are all English software.

As for the operating system, it is the world of English. Whether it is Microsoft's Windows system or Apple's system, it is also an operating system based on English.

There is a lot of investment, and there are many people who study this aspect, but there is still no substantial breakthrough, so that some people even blame the Chinese language.

It is believed that Chinese is an inferior language and cannot adapt to the development of the trend of the times. The country should completely eliminate Chinese and learn from India to change the official language to English, so as to better integrate with the world and catch up with the development of the trend of the times.

Of course, this kind of absurd statement about deliberately belittling oneself and elevating others is not self-defeating in the end. With the advent of smart phones, everyone suddenly found that when entering information on a mobile phone, nine letter keys in Chinese are enough. Very fast, but English input is very slow and prone to errors.

As a result, when inputting English, everyone gradually has a tendency to learn Chinese and use a more concise way to express meaning.

I'm not in a hurry, but there has been no progress, and the whole person is very irritable.

Hearing Qin Yi's comforting words, Wang Zhengyang smiled bitterly.

Being able to enter the Galaxy Science and Technology Research Institute, his salary is very good, there is no problem in a prosperous and well-off life, and there is no trouble in life.

However, in this work, the study of Chinese programming and Chinese operating system, with no progress for a long time, the whole person became very irritable, and at one point even wanted to quit his job.

Tell me, what are the problems with Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems?

Qin Yi smiled,

In fact, Qin Yi knows a little bit about Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems, and he has studied and studied it himself.

In the science and technology tower, Qin Yi also carefully studied the languages ​​and characters of many civilizations in the universe, found many languages ​​similar to Chinese, and carefully studied their computer operating systems and programming systems.

As a work of advanced civilization, the Science and Technology Tower also has detailed instructions for systems and programming that do not understand the relationship between language and characters. There is a guide on how to start with various characters and how to clarify ideas. .

This time, Qin Yi also intends to teach these ideas and methods to everyone. Otherwise, when the virtual machine is researched, the Chinese operating system and Chinese programming system may not have been researched.

Where should I start~

Wang Zhengyang took Qin Yi to the institute and came to a conference room. The conference room was full of people from the institute who were studying Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems.

Wang Zhengyang carefully sorted out his language, thought about it and said, Let's start with the language. Compared with English, Chinese has many advantages.

Chinese characters are refined, concise and comprehensive, with low redundancy, and express the richest meaning with the fewest symbols. We will explain from the perspective of informatics. Chinese characters and Western letters are the most basic units of language and characters, which are used to form words and sentences. It conveys certain information and is the carrier of information, how to measure the information carried by each Chinese character and letter?

Modern informatics uses entropy to measure the average amount of information, and entropy represents the uncertainty of the appearance of a specified symbol. There are about 30 pinyin letters used in Western letters, and Chinese are written in square words, with thousands of them. The degree of uncertainty of random occurrence is much greater than that of Western letters, and from this perspective, the amount of information carried by each Chinese character is far greater than that of one letter.

After statistical calculations, we found that the zero-order entropy value of French letters is 3.98 bits, the zero-order entropy value of Italian letters is 4.00 bits, the zero-order entropy value of Spanish letters is 4.01 bits, and the zero-order entropy value of English letters is 4.03 bits. 4.10 bits for German, 4.12 bits for Romanian, and 4.35 bits for Russian.”

The zero-order entropy of English words is 10.0 bits, and the zero-order entropy of Chinese words is 11.46 bits, which shows that Chinese words are also richer than English.

As Wang Zhengyang said, someone next to him started to turn on the projector and broadcast their research results on the differences between Chinese and English.

Because our Chinese is too concise and concise, one word and one word expresses too many meanings. The same word and word have completely different meanings in different occasions and tone.

Therefore, a sentence composed of Chinese characters has richer meanings. Often a very simple sentence has multiple meanings.

For example, how much can you wear?

This sentence is very simple, it has two meanings, one is to wear as much clothes as possible, the other is to wear as little clothes as possible, the two meanings are completely different, but they are the same sentence.

Originally, language reduction is a very good thing, but in the field of computers, because computers are fundamentally accurate calculations.

If the meaning is not clear, it has no way to calculate.

On the contrary, English is more verbose, but verbose is verbose. A language with high verbosity has good structure, accurate language information expression, and strong error correction ability, which is beneficial to computer calculation and programming.

Qin Yi listened carefully, and he understood what Wang Zhengyang said as soon as he heard it, and Qin Yi, who had also studied computers in depth, naturally understood.

As far as I know, the process of program coding requires as much refinement as possible. It stands to reason that the advantages of our Chinese language should be more obvious.

Hearing this, Qin Yi thought about it and raised his doubts.

You're right. From the history of computer development, programming has always required refinement, especially in the beginning of computer development. Because of the limited storage capacity, coding is as refined as possible.

It's like in our ancient times, before paper was invented, writing could only be done on sheepskin and bamboo. Because writing materials were endless, we tried to write as concisely as possible, so we have the classical Chinese. .

But refining is refining. In the end, a computer is still an operation, a method of calculation. Refining also needs to express the exact meaning. Our Chinese is too rich in meaning, and refining is absolutely enough, but the expression is too rich. It's a huge problem for computing.

Hearing Qin Yi's words, Wang Zhengyang nodded. He is an expert in computer word information processing and understands these things very well.

So, it is impossible to realize Chinese programming and Chinese system?

Hearing this, Qin Yi couldn't help frowning. Listening to Wang Zhengyang's words, he always felt more depressed and angry, and he was thinking about whether to change someone to preside over this work.

This is the first time that Qin Yi has changed people. Qin Yi has never changed the person in charge of any research unit, but this time, Qin Yi really moved this era a bit.

No~ This can be done in English, and we can do it in Chinese too.

Because our Chinese has richer meanings, I think that in the course of future computer development, the advantages of our Chinese will become more and more obvious.

In addition, a computer is a computer, and a language is a language. This English can be used, our Chinese can also be, and other Japanese, Arabic, etc. can also be used. Essentially, any language can be used.

It's just that we may be limited by English and the existing programming thinking, and we have been unable to break the rules and regulations left by English programming and English operating systems, so we have not made any progress.

PS: Anyone who has studied computer, come out and talk about the possibility of programming in Chinese~
