### Hello Quantum World

```synapse
// Create quantum entanglement
quantum[2] {
    H(q0)                    // Superposition
    CNOT(q0, q1)            // Entanglement
    measure(q0, q1)         // Measurement
}

// Uncertainty propagation
let measurement = 10.5 ± 0.3
let doubled = measurement * 2
print(doubled)  // Output: 21.0 ± 0.6

// Parallel hypothesis testing
parallel {
    hypothesis "conservation" {
        assume energy_before
        when collision_occurs
        then energy_after == energy_before
    }
}
```

## 🎯 **Core Features**

### 1. 🔢 **Uncertainty-Aware Computing**
```synapse
uncertain temperature = 300 ± 10
uncertain pressure = 1.5 ± 0.1
let ideal_gas = (pressure * volume) / (gas_constant * temperature)
// Uncertainty propagates automatically: 24.9 ± 2.1
```

### 2. ⚛️ **Quantum Computing Integration**
```synapse
quantum[3] {
    // Prepare GHZ state
    H(q0)
    CNOT(q0, q1)
    CNOT(q0, q2)

    // Variational circuit
    for theta in optimization_parameters {
        RY(q0, theta[0])
        RY(q1, theta[1])
        CNOT(q0, q1)
    }
}
```

### 3. 🔗 **Parallel Execution**
```synapse
parallel {
    branch simulation: run_monte_carlo(10000)
    branch analysis: compute_statistics(data)
    branch visualization: generate_plots(results)
}
```

### 4. 🧪 **Hypothesis-Driven Programming**
```synapse
hypothesis "efficiency_increase" {
    assume baseline_performance
    when new_algorithm_applied
    then performance_improvement > 20%
    confidence 0.95
}
```
