Despite many common concepts with classical computer science, quantum
|
|
computing is still widely considered as a special discipline within the
|
|
broad field of theoretical physics. One reason for the slow adoption of
|
|
QC by the computer science community is the confusing variety of
|
|
formalisms (Dirac notation, matrices, gates, operators, etc.), none of
|
|
which has any similarity with classical programming languages, as well
|
|
as the rather ``physical'' terminology in most of the available
|
|
literature.
|
|
|
|
QCL (Quantum Computation Language) tries to fill this gap: QCL is a
|
|
hight level, architecture independent programming language for quantum
|
|
computers, with a syntax derived from classical procedural languages
|
|
like C or Pascal. This allows for the complete implementation and
|
|
simulation of quantum algorithms (including classical components) in one
|
|
consistent formalism.
