This second edition of "Dancing with Qubits" is your introduction to this developing science. From a beginner's starting place, you'll be able to understand why quantum computing has become so different from the classical computation systems we're accustomed to using every day. You'll learn the concepts at the heart of quantum systems, like superposition and entanglement, thanks to clear and straightforward explanations and many examples.
However, Dancing with Qubits - Second Edition doesn't shrink from the math. It makes the subject approachable as you're walked through the essential math that undergirds quantum computing. Learn the principles behind quantum computation through physics, including detailed quantum circuits and quantum algorithms like Grover's search algorithm and Shor's factoring algorithm. Even get a look into the physics of quantum hardware. And new chapters on NISQ algorithms and quantum machine learning give the latest insight into the field's direction.
Whether you are a novice or already know something about quantum computing, "Dancing with Qubits" puts this exploding field in your intellectual grasp. By the end, you'll understand quantum computing's potential applications and how it could revolutionize industries like scientific computing and AI.
