Silq software

SILQ is easy to use and pays for itself many times over each month. I would not hesitate in recommending your product to any small legal firm and especially to anyone contemplating setting up a sole practice as I did.

SILQ Allows me to keep my overheads and administration costs to a minimum. I have been using SILQ now for several years and have always found it to be a most useful and reliable practice management tool. SILQ works well, is easy to use, is scaleable and provides many custom features that more elaborate and expensive solutions overlook. I thoroughly recommend adopting SILQ. SILQ was and is an invaluable toll in starting up my own solo practice. It has all the best features of and none of the hassles of the big firm systems you know who you are and allows me to manage my practice on the run, literally from the Court room.

Tech backup is first rate but the real story is the SILQ program has never let me down. Well done SILQ. When our existing accounting provider was bought out by a large company with a wide range of services that we did not need, and did not wish to pay for, we investigated our options.

Prior to Silq we had no practice management software and used Word for our templates and file storage which was time consuming and cumbersome. In addition to the accounting package we now have a matter management package. Silq have taken into account all the specific requirements for a small suburban firm of solicitors with 4 fee earners.

We are not a large firm but feel that we are now operating like a large firm without paying excessive fees. SILQ have been working with us to tailor and accommodate all our needs with enthusiasm and patience. Lots of patience. First, install the general-purpose editor VS Code by following these instructions. We additionally recommend you follow our instructions on typing unicode symbols useful when writing Silq programs.

To start programming, just create a file with extension. Type-checking now happens automatically, on save or on pressing F5 :. Programs with a main function can be run i. The following instructions are targeted for Ubuntu, but should also work for other Linux distributions or Mac. For now, Silq does not generate code for any existing hardware backend and only supports its own simulator.

Silq is the first quantum programming language that is not designed primarily around the construction and functionality of the hardware, but on the mindset of the programmers when they want to solve a problem—without requiring them to understand every detail of the computer architecture and implementation. Silq is also the first programming language that automatically identifies and erases values that are no longer needed.

As a key novelty, Silq helps to bridge the conceptual gap between classical and quantum languages. While traditionally quantum algorithms were often specified in terms of circuits, quantum languages express quantum algorithms more conveniently as source code. However, existing quantum languages force the programmer to work at a low level of abstraction, still essentially specifying quantum circuits that explicitly apply quantum operations to individual quantum bits.

As a consequence, implementing quantum algorithms in these languages is tedious and error-prone. In contrast, Silq supports a descriptive view on quantum algorithms that expresses the high-level intent of the programmer. Then, the compilation of these algorithms to low-level quantum circuits becomes a second-order concern that can be handled by a specialized compiler, much like in classical programming languages.

Thus, Silq programs are not only shorter, but also easier to read and write, as they require less primitives and concepts. In the following, we explain the necessity of uncomputation, and the benefits of automating it. Analogously to the classical setting, quantum computations often produce temporary values.

To remove temporary values from consideration without inducing an implicit measurement, algorithms in existing languages must explicitly uncompute all temporary values, i.

This results in a significant gap from quantum to classical languages, where discarding temporary values typically requires no action except for heap values not garbage-collected.
