Quantum Computing

Jupyter Notebook

Firms like IBM, Honeywell, Zapata, Rigetti, Amazon, Google, IonQ, and others are all adopting and investing heavily in quantum computing. This is a great opportunity to get involved.

In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of quantum computing, starting with quantum bits or qubits. These are the centerpiece and most basic computational unit. 

You will then move on to quantum mechanics and the role of quantum gates, circuits, and simulating computers. From there, you will get acquainted with the many different quantum algorithms that are asymptotically faster than their classical counterparts. These include: Deutsch Jozsa, Grover’s search, and Shor’s factoring.

By the end of this course, you will have the foundations in place to start exploring more applications of quantum computing. This is just the beginning!

The Fundamentals of Quantum Computing

Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathen Rosen took the handy **Stern-Gerlach Experiment**  and created a thought experiment around it. The three scientists imagined what would happen if they took that apparatus of magnets and detection screens and use it to measure the spin of two highly **entangled** electrons. 



Let’s learn about a paradox that proposed that some things would need to travel faster than light.
