Microsoft spins its quantum plans
 

Written a language for a computer which does not exist

Microsoft is trying to be prepared for the new breed of quantum computers, even though a true quantum PC does not exist yet.

Vole has unveiled a new programming language and other tools for the futuristic tech at its Ignite conference. It integrates traditional languages like C# and Python, and Microsoft will make it easier to do mainstream computing on the complex machines.

Microsoft clearly does not want to miss what will happen when the computers come out and has built a language for computers that don't really exist. But then again most of the parts of quantum don’t appear to exist either. We would have thought if you can get the language sorted out it is in the realms of probability that a machine might simply appear out of thin air.
