 **Writing guide on quantum computing** (this article) covers conventions specific to quantum computing articles in this wiki. Read [[general-writing-guide]] first for structure, paragraph, and code block conventions that apply across all articles.
-The audience reminder from the general guide is especially relevant here: quantum computing draws on linear algebra, complex analysis, and abstract algebra that a typical computer engineering student has not yet seen. When a derivation uses a property that is not self-evident from the notation — that the Hamiltonian is Hermitian ($H^\dagger = H$), that the dagger of a product reverses order ($(AB)^\dagger = B^\dagger A^\dagger$), that trace is cyclic ($\mathrm{tr}(ABC) = \mathrm{tr}(CAB)$) — it is often worth adding a brief parenthetical at the point of use.
