LSU is using this in their quantum computing course: arxiv.org/pdf/2511.02844
"Students begin with ... QWLA, a lightweight simulation framework that supports intuitive engagement with core quantum ideas without requiring prior knowledge of matrix algebra."

Here's a paper describing quantum computing using standard programming constructs, w/o the linear algebra!
The hope is that this will demystify quantum computing and serve as a formal foundation for reasoning about quantum programs.
