I don't want to sound like a jerk or anything but you'd think that if a high schooler could write an entire paper like this about quantum computing of all things they'd be able to spell a few more things correctly, get basic punctuation right, grammar, etc.?
- awat 8y agoPhrased another way this is a great example of why the breakdown of a cumulative score (verbal vs quant, etc) is important on standardized tests.
- DoreenMichele 8y agoMaybe you would, but I wouldn't. First, those are unrelated skill sets. Second, lots of people excel in one area and suck in another. That's completely normal.
- samhain 8y ago>Quantum computing is a chance a solving problems that are considered unsolvable classical computers. Quantum computing is a relatively new and complicated field in this paper I provide a brief overview of quantum computing systems. I agree, the abstract doesn't even make sense and has run-ons. It looks like they didn't even bother to run it through spell check. I must admit their formatting is very nice. It looks like they might have used LaTex.
- code_duck 8y agoSince they don't proofread words effectively and missed simple mistakes like 'silt' for 'slit', it makes me doubt that the formulas have been proofread thoroughly, either.
- threatofrain 8y agoThose things become far less important as your thinking becomes more attractive for others to read. Also plenty of people don't do their own editing.
- coyoterabbit 8y agoIt was a jarring read seeing those basic mistakes. Even just a once-over before publishing to web would have likely caught those typos and increased the credibility of the paper. Perhaps the author was tight for timeline or couldn't source a peer reviewer.
