Introduction to Quantum Computing for Everyone 2 (edX)

Introduction to Quantum Computing for Everyone 2 (edX)

This course focuses on the mathematics, programming, operations, and algorithms of quantum computing. A follow-on to Intro to QC for Everyone 1, this course delves deeper into the mathematical basis for quantum computing and the programming that makes it a reality. Students will be taught all of the mathematical concepts they need to know, build up confidence and experience with individual and small groups of operations, then learn a sequence of important algorithms.
