Programming Language for a Quantum Computer No one has built one yet, no one really knows how to build one, but that didn't stop Stefano Bettelli of Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France from starting the process of designing a programming language for this non-existent quantum computer. In an article in the European Physical Journal, the author describes quantum registers, quantum operators and quantum bits (qubits). Those qubits can then be manipulated by the program by operators employing unitary transformations. Pretty heady stuff, but possiby the beginning of a new programming paradigm.
