The official hello world is documented at: qiskit.org/documentation/intro_tutorial1.html and contains a Bell state circuit.

Our version at qiskit/hello.py.

A Python wrapper over a bunch of numeric and computer algebra system packages to try and fully replace MATLAB et. al.

For example, their

Quickstart tutorial at: www.sagemath.org/tour-quickstart.html From this we see that they are very opinionated, you don't need to import anything, everything has a pre-defined global name, which is convenient, e.g.:is the 3D vector space over the rationals. This also suggests that they are quite focused on computer algebra as opposed to numerical.

This is likely a joke binet, but the idea is epic: its members would in principle take the hardest courses and purposefully get bad grades on them to improve the grades of others, as grades are always normalized to a normal distribution.

Turing machine regex tape notation is Ciro Santilli's made up name for the notation used e.g. at:Most of it is just regular regular expression notation, with a few differences:

This notation is very useful, as it helps compress long repeated sequences of Turing machine tape and extract higher level patterns from them, which is how you go about understanding a Turing machine in order to apply Turing machine acceleration.

A quantum circuit which when fed with input $|00⟩$ produces the Bell state.

In Qiskit at: qiskit/hello.py.

On Qiskit qiskit==0.44.1:

E.g. with our qiskit/hello.py, we obtain the Bell state circuit:

These are a bit like the Verilog of quantum computing.

One would hope that they are not Turing complete, this way they may serve as a way to pass on data in such a way that the receiver knows they will only be doing so much computation in advance to unpack the circuit. So it would be like JSON is for JavaScript.

These appear to be benchmarks that don't involve running anything concretely, just compiling and likely then counting gates:

We ust use the if mod notation definition as mentioned at: math.stackexchange.com/questions/4305972/what-exactly-is-a-collatz-like-problem/4773230#4773230

As mentioned in True Genius: The Life and Science of John Bardeen page 224, the idea of symmetry breaking was a major motivation in Josephson's study of the Josephson effect.

Ciro Santilli invented this term, it refers to mechanisms in which you put an animal in a virtual world that the animal can control, and where you can measure the animal's outputs.
