Minor Typo on page/section https://qiskit.org/documentation/qc_intro.html#quantum-circuits #1771

Where is the problem?

https://qiskit.org/documentation/qc_intro.html#quantum-circuits

Typo in fourth paragraph. Please see below for specific location.

What is the problem?

The word "to" is reversed ("ot") in the last sentence of the paragraph below. I have indicated the location in bold below. Please check the second word from the end of the paragraph.

Quantum gates form the primitive operations on quantum data. Quantum gates represent information preserving, reversible transformations on the quantum data stored in qubits. These β€œunitary” transformations represent the quantum mechanical core of a quantum circuit. Some gates such as 𝑋 (also written as βŠ•) and 𝐢𝑋 have classical analogs such as bit-flip and 𝑋𝑂𝑅 operations, respectively, while others do not. The Hadamand (𝐻) gate, along with the parameterized rotates π‘Ÿπ‘‹(πœƒ) and π‘Ÿπ‘Œ(πœƒ), generate superposition states, while gates such as 𝑍, π‘Ÿπ‘(πœƒ), 𝑆, and 𝑇 impart phases that can be used for interference. Two-qubit gates like the 𝐢𝑋 gate are used to generate entanglement between pairs of qubits, or to β€œkick” the phase from one qubit ot another.

What would you expect?

...the phase from one qubit to another.

I think this issue is not of this repo but of qiskit main repository. @vabarbosa @td2014 can you please transfer this issue there Thank you

@divshacker I have reposted this issue to repo Qiskit /qiskit (https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/issues/1254) and am closing issue here. Thank you.
