Objective
This talk introduces the use of Python for simulating capabilities of subatomic computational systems or quantum computers.
Description
Quantum Computing is one of the less talked about areas, but it is futuristic, and that's what makes it so amazing. This talk will be about the use of Python as a Quantum Computing Language. The highlights of the talks would include:
- Quantum Computers: Introduction
- qubits: The foundation of QC
- Programming QC
- Introduction to qutip
- Quantum Data Types
- Writing methods
- Ok, Got it . . What do I do with it?
We will then take a look at immense prospects that Python holds as a valuable aid to Quantum Computing Researchers and also realizing QC into real world practical applications.
Despite the vastness of the area itself, this talk will serve the purpose of getting you started and help you get your first handshake with Quantum Codes.If you love crazy and non-human hobbies, then Quantum Computing should definitely be on your list, and if you have already considered the thought then here's where the wizards hang out: Quantiki Portal
Requirements
- Python 2.7
- Numpy, Scipy, Cython, Matplotlib and Qutip 2
