>>13770862Yeah. A good analogy might be some signal, like a sine wave on an oscilloscope. We know a sine wave is smooth, but our measuring tools will sample at discrete intervals so if you zoom in it will look like your sine wave is actually a bunch of connected straight lines. The more samples you take, the smoother your curve and more sure you are it is in fact a sine wave underlying it all.
Of course it could be wrong yet again, your sine wave might actually not be smooth and have an oscillating pattern of its own along it but we just can't see it at our measuring resolution which is why you will hear people say QM is not "everything is a wave", but rather "everything is a [something else]" that when measured exhibits properties of a wave and particle (depends on your flavour of QM, this is the big question, everyone is still guessing).
