Jacket<p><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Functional" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Functional</span></a> programing will probably become the most popular paradigm of <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/quantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quantum</span></a> computing. It's impossible for now to copy a qubit so any algorithms has to be written in a stateless way. At the moment, quantum algorithms are written in a more declarative manner cause we are still figuring out how to do anything with those machine. There is some attempts at creating functional languages for quantum computers but at the moment you can't run them on hardware. I'm talking here about <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Quipper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quipper</span></a>, <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/QML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QML</span></a>, and <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Silq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Silq</span></a> but I'm convinced that this will be the way once we will figure out how to make a quantum computer stable. Quipper is based on <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Haskell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Haskell</span></a>. I just find it cool.</p>
