Quantum Development Kit preview
I'm legitimately excited by quantum computing. The field is moving SO much faster than popular knowledge, which seems to believe a quantum computer will arrive at the same time as a workable fusion reactor. Real quantum computers exist RIGHT NOW. You can even write a program and run it on one from IBM![0] Google and Microsoft are both dumping resources into creating commercially-available quantum computers. Google says it will demonstrate a quantum computer in mere months which outperforms a classical computer on some problem.[1] The real value of quantum computers is not found in breaking RSA. Simulated molecular dynamics sees an exponential speedup over classical methods; this has huge ramifications for drug & material design.[2] What a time to be alive!I have a BSc in Computer Science, and am teaching myself quantum computing. I'm really liking the book Quantum Computer Science: An Introduction by David Mermin. All this stuff is within your grasp! You aren't required to understand quantum weirdness to use a quantum computer.[0] https://quantumexperience.ng.bluemix.net/qx/experience[1] https://www.technologyreview.com/s/609035/google-reveals-blu...[2] https://www.chemistryworld.com/feature/quantum-chemistry-on-...
