Course plan:
- Section "Programmer's model of quantum computers"
- look at a Qiskit hello world
- e.g. ours: qiskit/hello.py
- learn about quantum circuits.
- tensor product in quantum computing
- First we learn some quantum logic gates. This shows an alternative, and extremely important view of a quantum computer besides a matrix multiplication: as a circuit. Fundamental subsections:
- quantum algorithms
The most common way to construct multi-qubit gates is to use single-qubit gates as part of a controlled quantum gate.
But seriously, this is a valuable little list.
The course is basically exclusively about transmons.
