- 1. The selection is contiguous because the cells form a contiguous matrix of data, but there is no concept of selecting the space between two cells.
- 单元格组成一个连续的数据矩阵，所以选择是连续的，但是没有选择两个单元格之间空间的说法。

- 2. These objects are often selected in contiguous groups, and so we call them contiguous data, and selection within them contiguous selection.
- 这些对象常以连续分组的方式进行选择，所以我们称之为“连续数据”，对连续数据的选择就是“连续选择”。

- 3. Scrolling, not the contiguous selection, creates the problem, but most programs that manage contiguous data are scrollable.
- 造成问题的是滚屏，而不是连续选择，但多数管理连续数据的程序都是可滚动的。

- 4. Contiguous selection exhibits a unique quirk: The selection can simply indicate a location between two elements of contiguous data, rather than any particular element of the data.
- 连续选择还有个特殊倾向，即选择能简单明了地表明连续数据两个元素之间的位置。

- 6. Discrete data is not necessarily homogeneous, and discrete selection is not necessarily contiguous.
- 离散数据不一定是同一类的，离散选择也不一定是连续的。

- 7. Both contiguous selection and discrete selection support single-click selection and click-and-drag selection.
- 连续选择和离散选择都支持单击选择和单击并拖动选择。

- 8. In contiguous selection, however, the incoming data always replaces the currently selected data.
- 但在连续选择中，输入的数据总是会替换当前选中数据。

- 9. Mutual exclusion is the rule in both discrete and contiguous selection.
- 互斥对离散选择和连续选择都适用。

- 10. Conversely, some applications represent data as a matrix of many small contiguous pieces of data.
- 与之相反，有些程序把数据表示为由许多连续的小片数据组成的矩阵。
