是的，Scala 可能很难理解.我会尽我所能解释它，尽管我也可能不正确.

Yeah, Scala can be pretty hard to understand. I'll do my best to explain it, though I might not get it right either.

List.count 方法将返回布尔值的 block 代码作为参数.

The List.count method takes as a parameter a block of code that returns a boolean.

块只是一小段代码，可以通过多种方式创建，例如将代码包含在 { }

Blocks are just little snippets of code and can be created in many ways eg by enclosing code in { }

在 Scala 文档中，这被描述为

In the scala docs this is described as

def count (p : (A) => Boolean) : Int

so count 接受一个参数 p 这是一个接受 A 类型的参数并返回一个 Boolean 的块代码>

so count takes a parameter p which is a block that takes an argument of type A and returns a Boolean

所以在这个例子中:

s => s.length == 3

是一个 block 代码.块通常遵循格式

is a block of code. Blocks usually follow the format

[arguments] => [Code to execute]

所以在这个例子中 s 是块的输入，s.length == 3 是应该返回一个布尔值的代码.您可以随意命名参数，只要它们的顺序正确即可.

So in this instance s is the input to the block and s.length == 3 is the code that should return a boolean. You can name the arguments whatever you like, so long as they are in the correct order.

当使用迭代集合的方法时，例如 count、map、each 等，传递的参数将是当前的它正在迭代的集合中的项目.

When using a method that iterates over a collection, eg count, map, each, etc, the argument passed will be the current item in the collection it is iterating over.
