A developer-centric look at quantum computing.
Quantum computing opens a new realm of possibilities for developers working in complex research and business domains like industrial simulation, predictive modeling, drug discovery, and operations research. Building Quantum Software with Python gives you the foundation you’ll need to build the software for the quantum age.
In Building Quantum Software with Python you will learn about:
- Quantum search, probability estimation, and quantum counting
- A practical introduction to quantum algorithms
- Quantum states, gates, and circuits
- Running software on simulators and quantum hardware
- Classical simulations of quantum computations
Quantum computers are rapidly becoming a realistic alternative for complex research and business problems. Building Quantum Software with Python lays out the math and programming techniques you’ll need to apply quantum solutions to real challenges like predictions based on massive data sets and intricate simulations. You will learn which quantum algorithms and patterns apply to different types of problems and how to build your first quantum applications.
Building Quantum Software with Python builds your understanding of quantum computing by relating it to the classical computing concepts you already know. With careful explanations and thoughtful illustrations, it takes you from zero knowledge to creating quantum solutions that run on a simulator or on real quantum hardware. The book utilizes intuitive visualizations of quantum systems with tables and diagrams developers will find instantly familiar, and code implementations that are easier to understand than complex algebra.
As you go, you’ll explore potential applications of quantum computing, including useful probability distributions for truly random sampling, quantum optimization solutions using the knapsack problem, and quantum solutions for unstructured search. All the simulator code you write can be easily converted to run on IBM Quantum hardware.
