From 2d7973c61a8910f93b79d5b54cf9fc5bf0f130eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frank Harkins Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2023 14:35:58 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Tidy descriptions (#599) This PR makes small adjustments to the descriptions that do not change their meaning. The changes are: - Make descriptions full sentences - Fix obvious grammatical errors - Remove markdown Since these changes do not affect meaning, we don't need to run this PR by project developers. I plan to make follow up PRs rephrasing and shortening some descriptions, which I will get sign-off from developers for. --- .../resources/members/Quantum-Glasses.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/SSVQE.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/diskit.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/mitiq.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/mthree.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/pennylane-qiskit.toml | 2 +- .../members/python-open-controls.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/pytket-qiskit.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/q-kernel-ops.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/qiskit-alt.toml | 2 +- .../members/qiskit-classroom-converter.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/qiskit-classroom.toml | 2 +- .../members/qiskit-ibm-provider.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/qiskit-ionq.toml | 2 +- .../qiskit-nature-pyscf-dft-embedding.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/qiskit-rigetti.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/qtcodes.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/quantumcat.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/quantuminspire.toml | 2 +- .../members/sat-circuits-engine.toml | 2 +- ecosystem/resources/members/spinoza.toml | 2 +- .../resources/members/vqls-prototype.toml | 2 +- website/index.html | 42 +++++++++---------- 23 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) diff --git a/ecosystem/resources/members/Quantum-Glasses.toml b/ecosystem/resources/members/Quantum-Glasses.toml index 7ba18111b8..085b50a97e 100644 --- a/ecosystem/resources/members/Quantum-Glasses.toml +++ b/ecosystem/resources/members/Quantum-Glasses.toml @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ name = "Quantum-Glasses" url = "https://github.com/Jayshah25/Quantum-Glasses" -description = "Visualise the effects of Single Qubit Gates on a Qubit via Bloch Sphere Simulation in a Tkinter Software." +description = "Visualise the effects of single-qubit gates on a qubit via Bloch sphere simulation in a Tkinter software." licence = "Apache License 2.0" contact_info = "shahj097@gmail.com" alternatives = "The only alternative is to code up a circuit (qiskit.QuantumCircuit) and pass the circuit to visualize_transition from qiskit.visualization.
