I started counting angels on the tip of a pin again, but this time Lin Yun joined me in counting. In the process of establishing mathematical models, I found that Lin Yun's mathematical ability is not as good as mine, but she has a wide range of knowledge and has quite deep atments in many sciences, which is required by her major. She is very good at computer. Mathematical models are programmed by her hands. Her program has the visual result output, if the model mathematically is successful, the screen will appear a three-dimensional ball lightning, its internal fine structure lies, it disappeared when the energy release process in slow motion performance is clear, in a picture can also be observed in a three-dimensional coordinate system its trajectory. This was far more than a matter of intuition and aesthetics, compared with the dry tables and curves my previous programs produced: the data used to come out and require time-consuming and tedious procedures to know if the model was successful, but now the computer does all that automatically. This software has revolutionized our theoretical understanding of ball lightning.
