我们展示了量子计算的物理吸引力和优雅的画面，使用为飞镖游戏构建的规则。量子力学中用飞镖来表示状态空间，投掷飞镖的行为与量子力学中波函数的测量或坍缩的概念有密切的相似之处。这个类比是在任意维度的空间中构建的，也就是说，使用任意维度的飞镖，对于这样的任意空间，这也为我们提供了对不确定性的“视觉”描述。最后，量子比特和量子计算算法之间的联系也被建立起来，开启了在量子算法和耦合飞镖投掷之间构建类比的可能性。
We present a physically appealing and elegant picture for quantum computing, using rules constructed for a game of darts. A dartboard is used to represent the state space in quantum mechanics, and the act of throwing the dart is shown to have close similarities to the concept of measurement or collapse of the wave function in quantum mechanics. The analogy is constructed in arbitrary dimensional spaces, that is, using arbitrary dimensional dartboards, and for such arbitrary spaces this also provides us a “visual” description of uncertainty. Finally, connections between qubits and quantum computing algorithms are also made, opening the possibility to construct analogies between quantum algorithms and coupled dart throws.
