Re:A programming language for this kind of compute (Score 1)

I too wonder about this, but languages are too far away to think about right now. If quantum algorithms are much faster than the classical counterparts and if we can actually build devices to do this, then I imagine that the higher level languages will start to resemble human languages more ... On the other hand, many solutions to common problems in computing may be much more concrete than we can imagine now (a throwback to the old days of computing when solutions had to be "hardwired"). What will be the role of programming languages (as we know them now) be in that environment?
