reasoning
**Considering computation efficiency** I’m thinking about kernel operations per row that can compute local quantities for strided dimensions and sum energies while reducing within a block. After that, it sounds like each thread will write its elements of q_new, which seems straightforward. Now, should I consider using dynamic shared memory? Maybe I could use 128 floats and an accepted boolean. By the way, generating random numbers might add overhead, similar to the reference implementation.
