The First Language Built for Quantum plus Security and Auditability

Introducing 11/11 (Language Specification v0.1

Executive Summary

Quantum computing is advancing rapidly but the software layer is fundamentally incomplete.

Today, developers are offered:

• SDKs masquerading as languages

• Assembly-level circuit formats without system semantics

• Security and audit layers bolted on after execution

• No native way to express trust, verification, or compliance

  
  

11/11 was created to address this gap.

It is the first programming language designed from the ground up to express:

• Quantum computation

• Security and post-quantum constraints

• Auditability and verification

• Hybrid quantum–classical workflows

…as first-class language constructs, not external documentation.

This article introduces 11/11 as:

• A language

• A compiler target

• A quantum intermediate representation (IR)

• A strategic software asset

  
  

The Structural Failure of Existing Quantum Languages

SDKs Are Not Languages

Most “quantum programming” today occurs inside Python SDKs.

While useful, SDKs suffer from structural limitations:

• Logic is fragmented across host language constructs

• Intent is obscured by object hierarchies

• Security and audit are external concerns

• Portability is limited by vendor runtime assumptions

These tools were never designed to describe systems.

Assembly Is Not Architecture

Formats like OpenQASM are precise and necessary but incomplete.

They describe:

• Gates

• Registers

• Measurements

They do not describe:

• Trust boundaries

• Execution guarantees

• Verification logic

• Compliance constraints

• Hybrid orchestration

Assembly is a target, not a language of intent.

The Missing Layer

Every computing era eventually converges on a human-readable, intent-level abstraction:

• Hardware → Assembly → C

• C → Managed languages

• Managed languages → Declarative systems

Quantum computing has not reached this convergence.

11/11 was built to be that layer.

What 11/11 Is and Is Not

What 11/11 Is

• A quantum-native programming language

• A security-aware execution language

• A hybrid orchestration language

• A portable intermediate representation

  
  

What 11/11 Is Not

• A hardware competitor

• A simulator replacement

• A vendor SDK

• A physics research tool

• 
  

11/11 sits above hardware and below applications.

The Core Architectural Breakthrough

11/11 is built on a three-layer model that mirrors real-world production systems.

1. Circuit Layer (Pure Quantum)

Defines quantum logic cleanly and readably.

circuit BellPair {
  qubits q[2]
  bits   c[2]

  H  q[0]
  CX q[0] -> q[1]

  MEASURE q[0] -> c[0]
  MEASURE q[1] -> c[1]
}

This layer:

• Is deterministic in structure

• Compiles cleanly to OpenQASM

• Is hardware-agnostic

2. Policy Layer Security plus Trust

Defines constraints before execution, not after.

policy SovereignQuantum {
  trustzone "EdgeNode" level: high
  trustzone "CoreNode" level: critical

  audit on
  pq_mode on algorithm: "Kyber+Dilithium"
}

This is a first-of-its-kind capability:

• Security is declared, not inferred

• Auditability is executable

• Post-quantum readiness is explicit

  
  

3. Flow Layer

Defines how quantum and classical steps interact.

flow VerifyBell {
  use policy SovereignQuantum

  run circuit BellPair shots: 2048 as results

  assert distribution(results)
    approx { "00": 0.5, "11": 0.5 }
    tolerance: 0.1

  log "Bell state verified"
}

This transforms quantum code into systems code.

 11/11 — Quantum plus Security Programming Language

11/11 is a quantum-native programming language designed to express
quantum computation, security policies and auditability as first-class constructs.

 Why 11/11 Exists

Quantum SDKs are not languages.
Assembly formats are not systems.
Security is treated as an afterthought.

11/11 was created to unify these layers.

 Example

```11-11
circuit QRand {
  qubits q[1]
  bits c[1]

  H q[0]
  MEASURE q[0] -> c[0]
}

Planned Compiler Targets

• OpenQASM

• Qiskit

• Cirq

  
  

Roadmap

• v0.1 Spec

• Reference Compiler

• Simulator Backend

• Enterprise Runtime

 Part VII — Neutral Comparison 

 11/11 vs Existing Approaches

Human-readable intent
- SDKs: limited
- OpenQASM: no
- 11/11: yes

Security policies
- SDKs: external
- OpenQASM: none
- 11/11: native

Hybrid workflows
- SDKs: manual
- OpenQASM: none
- 11/11: built-in

Auditability
- SDKs: none
- OpenQASM: none
- 11/11: native

Backend portability
- SDKs: limited
- OpenQASM: yes
- 11/11: yes

Conclusion:  

11/11 does not replace these tools — it unifies them.


 Part VIII — Founder’s Note 

 Why I Built a New Quantum Language

Quantum computing is not blocked by hardware.

It is blocked by abstraction.

We cannot scale systems we cannot describe clearly.  
We cannot secure systems we cannot reason about.  
We cannot audit systems that were never designed for verification.

11/11 was built to solve that — calmly, deliberately and correctly.



Part IX — Market Potential

11/11 addresses overlapping trillion-dollar domains:

- Quantum software tooling
- Post-quantum security
- Regulated infrastructure
- Government and defense systems
- AI plus quantum hybrid pipelines

Languages that encode intent outlive hardware generations.


 Final Statement

11/11 is not speculative.

It is inevitable.

Quantum computing will require a language that understands security, auditability and systems reality.

11/11 was built to be that language.
