Visual Basic program 5.0 "VB Quantum Moves" description and operation

The program "VB Quantum Moves is based on the game: "Quantum Moves". For a copy go to: http://www.scienceathome.org

The program VB Quantum Moves consists of 4 excersizes.

1. Bring home water from fixed source.
2. Bring home water from moving away source.
3. Bring home water from approaching source.
4. Store away water to fixed destination

In each exercise there are two baskets identified as "A" or volume1 and "B" or volume2.
When you start the game the two baskets are certain distance away from each other

• In the excersizes 1 to 3 the source "B" contains a certain amount of water = 0.50
  The object of the game is to move basket "A" towards basket "B". Fill basket "A" with a certain amount and bring basket "A" back to its initial position in a fixed amount of time.
  The amount to fill in basket "A" is called Target1. Of each exercise there are 5 flavours. The differences are in Target1.
  The 5 flavours are: 0.25, 0.15, 0.35,0.45 and 0.5
  Flavour 5 means that basket "A" has completely filled.
• In the excersize 4 basket "A" contains a certain amount of water = 0.50
  The object of the game is to move basket "A" towards basket "B", Fill basket "B" with a certain amount and bring basket "A" back to its initial position in a fixed amount of time.
  The amount to fill in basket "B" is called Target2.
  Of each exercise there are 5 flavours. The differences are in Target2.
  The 5 flavours are: 0.25, 0.15, 0.35,0.45 and 0.5
  Flavour 5 means that basket "B" has completely filled and "A" completly emptied.

Reflection

My first impression is that I doubt the Quantum Mechanical implications of the game. Specific if this game can be used in anyway to speed up the development of a Quantum Computer.
