Dancing with Qubits: How quantum computing works and how it can change the world
Discover how quantum computing works and delve into the math behind it with Robert S. Sutor's latest publication, Dancing with Qubits: How quantum computing works and how it can change the world.
Quantum computing is making us change the way we think about computers. Quantum bits, a.k.a. qubits, can make it possible to solve problems that would otherwise be intractable with current computing technology.
Dancing with Qubits is a quantum computing textbook that starts with an overview of why quantum computing is so different from classical computing and describes several industry use cases where it can have a major impact. From there it moves on to a fuller description of classical computing and the mathematical underpinnings necessary to understand such concepts as superposition, entanglement, and interference. Next up is circuits and algorithms, both basic and more sophisticated. It then nicely moves on to provide a survey of the physics and engineering ideas behind how quantum computing hardware is built. Finally, the book looks to the future and gives you guidance on understanding how further developments will affect you.
Really understanding quantum computing requires a lot of math, and this book doesn't shy away from the necessary math concepts you'll need. Each topic is introduced and explained thoroughly, in clear English with helpful examples.
"A much-needed and welcome addition to the emerging literature on quantum computing. Fresh, provocative, and deeply thought-out with sections on the essential mathematical tools that anyone can access. Highly recommended!" -- Ilyas Khan, CEO, Cambridge Quantum Computing
"Dancing with Qubits is an excellent resource, both as a textbook in the classroom and as a reference for those learning and experimenting with quantum computing." -- James L. Weaver, Quantum Developer Advocate, IBM
