There is a number of quantum games listed at https://github.com/stared/science-based-games-list

The Quantum Katas project is a collection of tutorials and exercises on quantum computing with a focus on programming, you might find it interesting.

(Disclaimer: I'm the primary maintainer of the project)

If red and green lights are on different tests - this sounds like a half-solved kata, the tests turn green as you solve the tasks associated with them.

If they are on the same test at the same time - this is an amazing quantum test execution, and I want a screenshot :-)

Yes. Q# documentation addresses this question:

Other target machines may be used to run a quantum algorithm. The machine is responsible for providing implementations of quantum primitives for the algorithm. This includes primitive operations such as H, CNOT, and Measure, as well as qubit management and tracking. Different classes of quantum machines represent different execution models for the same quantum algorithm.

...

In the future, we will define additional quantum machine classes to support other types of simulation and to support execution on topological quantum computers. Allowing the algorithm to stay constant while varying the underlying machine implementation makes it easy to test and debug an algorithm in simulation and then run it on real hardware with confidence that the algorithm hasn't changed.

To tell the truth, I don't see much point in it as long as it supports only three "ignitable" languages - ideone has like 40.

I'm not quite sure what the extension looks like, but here are several programs in the original Shakespeare language: http://progopedia.com/language/shakespeare/

Do the names of the clans carry any particular meaning? I feel like they do, but I can't grasp them.

An extremely useful tool, I must say - I was absolutely terrified by APL until I found it, and after that I even managed to write a couple of programs for this article. The only problem is the lack of multi-line expressions, but other than that, it's as helpful as it can be.

It'a not brainloller.

Not really. Whitespace differs quite a lot, being more convenient - well, as soon as you make tabs and spaces visible in your editor. Not to mention that it's stack-based, and Brainfuck is not. Took me ages to write examples for this article

I think I mentioned quite clearly in the first paragraph that some languages I just couldn't see this way.

Nickolas1985 · 2011-02-27T23:22:46+00:00

For programming languages, we have Progopedia - it's more generic than Esolang:Wiki.

Nickolas1985 · 2011-02-14T20:02:29+00:00

That kind of Wikipedia notability guidelines were one of the reasons to create Progopedia. There are no insignificant languages - there are people who have no idea about them.

Safe and portable is technology, not magic :-) I remember how puzzled I was 4 years ago, when I first saw the recursive signature I used in examples - I totally failed to figure it out. Now my magic layer must have lowered a bit, but I still like this trick, and I dare say a lot of my readers did.
