  2. Fishing reel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_reel

    The baitcasting reel or baitcaster is a multiplying reel like modified from the conventional reel, but with a lighter spool and a higher, more forwardly positioned line guide to facilitate farther and smoother casting, hence the name. The baitcasting reel is always mounted above the rod handle (of what is known as a "casting rod"), hence its ...

  3. Quil (instruction set architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quil_(instruction_set...

    Quil is being developed for the superconducting quantum processors developed by Rigetti Computing through the Forest quantum programming API. [5] [6] A Python library called pyQuil was introduced to develop Quil programs with higher level constructs. A Quil backend is also supported by other quantum programming environments. [7] [8]

  4. Fishing rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_rod

    This also allows the rod to be held in the fisherman's dominant hand (the handle on most modern spinning reels is reversible) which greatly increases control and nuance applied to the rod itself. Spinning rods and reels are widely used in fishing for popular North American sport fish including bass, trout, pike and walleye. Popular targets for ...

  5. Quantum algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_algorithm

    In quantum computing, a quantum algorithm is an algorithm that runs on a realistic model of quantum computation, the most commonly used model being the quantum circuit model of computation. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] A classical (or non-quantum) algorithm is a finite sequence of instructions, or a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem, where each step ...

  6. Quantum programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_programming

    Quantum programming is the process of designing or assembling sequences of instructions, called quantum circuits, using gates, switches, and operators to manipulate a quantum system for a desired outcome or results of a given experiment.

  7. Quantum circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_circuit

    In a quantum circuit, the vectors are used to represent the state of the qubits and different matrices are used to represent the gate that is applied on the qubits. Since linear algebra is a major component of the quantum simulation, Field Programmable Gate Arrays could be used to accelerate the simulation of quantum computing. FPGA is a kind ...

    Raised in Lynchburg, Tennessee, Dance considered becoming a doctor, but changed his mind after happening upon a grisly motorcycle accident in the early 1960s.He then turned his focus to competing in bass tournaments.

  9. Quantum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum

    The word quantum is the neuter singular of the Latin interrogative adjective quantus, meaning "how much"."Quanta", the neuter plural, short for "quanta of electricity" (electrons), was used in a 1902 article on the photoelectric effect by Philipp Lenard, who credited Hermann von Helmholtz for using the word in the area of electricity.
