Quantum Computing
Introduction
Quantum computing represents a profound shift in how we process information, leveraging the strange but powerful laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems far beyond the reach of classical computers.
Unlike bits, which exist strictly as 0 or 1, quantum bits or qubits can occupy a superposition of both states simultaneously.
This superposition, together with entanglement (the “spooky action at a distance” that Einstein famously critiqued), allows quantum algorithms to explore vast solution spaces in parallel, promising exponential speedups for certain classes of problems—from cryptography and optimization to materials science and drug discovery.
However, building a practical quantum computer is an immense challenge, requiring advances in error correction, qubit coherence, and scalable architectures. As we stand on the brink of this new computational frontier, the potential applications are as exciting as they are transformative.
In this section, I will share my journey into quantum computing, the resources I've used, and how you can get started.
