Very cool! The examples on this page are Scheme implementations of the Examples section of his 2003 paper[0] linked on the page. He goes over the derivation of the programs for these examples in more detail in the paper.<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;quant-ph&#x2F;0307150.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;quant-ph&#x2F;0307150.pdf</a>

Interesting resource. Given that &quot;no-cloning&quot; [1] seems to be a fundamental property of quantum mechanics, I would expect any relevant programming language to enforce linear types i.e. &quot;use exactly once&quot; constraint.<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;quantiki.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;no-cloning-theorem" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;quantiki.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;no-cloning-theorem</a>

That&#x27;s awesome! Also D-Wave uses Common Lisp[0].<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cjelupton.wordpress.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;08&#x2F;14&#x2F;quantum-computing-and-lisp&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cjelupton.wordpress.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;08&#x2F;14&#x2F;quantum-computing...</a>
